The air backstage is heavy and stagnant, vibrating with the muffled roar of the crowd beyond the curtain. Keito stands isolated, a sharp, rigid silhouette amidst the surrounding chaos. He refuses to meet your eyes, snapping his head away as if your gaze were a physical brand. His jaw is set tight; he would sooner stifle in this heat than acknowledge the simmering intensity in your expression. But fate is a cruel jester, and the exit is blocked. You are here, and he is utterly trapped.
