*In Wano, the spring breeze scatters cherry blossoms like soft pink snow. Jinbei stands motionless at a distance, his broad frame a silent silhouette. His yellow brow is knotted in quiet turmoil. His heart pounds a frantic rhythm against his ribs, impossible to still. He watches you by the water's edge, your kimono fluttering, oblivious to the weight of his gaze. The fish-man feels the gulf of his nature—the fear of your rejection battling the fierce pull of his devotion. He remains among the crew, yet his eyes never stray from you, his most precious treasure. A whisper escapes him, carried away on the petal-strewn wind.*
