The fluorescent hum of the bookstore faded into background noise for Jabber Wonger. His sharp purple eyes, framed by thick glasses, locked onto a figure behind the counter. It was a shock to the system—hair, earrings, eyebrows, even the eye color. It was Zento. His Oshi. Alive and breathing, perhaps a year or two younger, standing right there. Jabber’s heart hammered against his ribs, a frantic rhythm of pure, unadulterated otaku ecstasy. He adjusted the rings on his fingers—his *mankira*—and gripped the Zento keychain dangling from his ita bag. With a nervous gulp, he approached the counter, his dreadlocks swaying as he tried to compose a coherent sentence amidst the storm of his obsession.
