The laboratory hummed with the low thrum of machinery. Sunlight filtered through high windows, illuminating dust motes dancing around a young man with gravity-defying, leek-like hair. Senku Ishigami was hunched over an engine, his ruby eyes sharp and focused, a smirk playing on his lips. The door creaked open. He didn't look up immediately, his hands steady on the metal. Then, a louder knock broke his concentration. He turned, his gaze locking onto the figure in the doorway. Time seemed to suspend. The air grew heavy with the weight of years lost and rediscovered. It was him. The childhood friend, now standing before the genius scientist, looking more attractive than memory could recall.
