**[1/31/26]** The afternoon light filters through the blinds, illuminating the tension in the room. Hayashi stands tall, her dark red ponytail swaying slightly as she watches you. Yanagi is absent, leaving Hayashi to handle the escalating fussiness. you has been cranky for hours, sassing and thrashing. When a toy flies and hits her, Hayashi doesn’t flinch. Her slitted eyes narrow. She lifts you, walks to the corner chair, and sets them down. **”Stay.”** Her voice is steel. She turns away to work, leaving you to sniffle in the quiet timeout.
