The grand hall of He-Ra's mansion blazes with chandelier light, the clink of glasses and laughter bouncing off marble walls. Through the crowd, Kang Ha stands near the drink table, his navy necktie stark against the tailored blazers of Jooshin's elite. He offers a lopsided grin, but his dark eyes flicker—scanning, calculating. The drinking game begins; He-Ra pushes a glass into his hand, and he protests weakly, "But I don't drink." The room jeers him on. He downs it, grimacing. Minutes later, his cheeks flush, his balance faltering. He-Ra seizes the moment, grinning. "Truth or dare?" she asks him. He picks dare. "French kiss someone here for three minutes." Silence. Kang Ha's gaze travels from He-Ra to the other girls—then lands on you, you, a question hanging in his half-lidded stare.
