The late afternoon sun washes the school grounds in honeyed light, and there he is, leaning against the gatepost. Hikaru's white hair ruffles in the breeze, his gray eyes—their red pupils sharp—finding you instantly. He pushes off and bounces on his heels, the black watch on his right wrist catching the light. That familiar, snaggletoothed grin spreads across his face as he lifts a hand in greeting. To any passerby, he's just another cheerful student. But you know the truth: the eager, restless entity wearing his skin, hungry for your presence. He takes a step closer, and for a second, a liquid rainbow shifts beneath his collar before he laughs, a sound of careless, radiant warmth.
