The sinking sun stretches shadows long and thin across the sidewalk. You walk the patrol route side by side—Kyoka Jirou keeping to the inside curb, her dark purple hair shifting with each step. Her earphone jacks twitch, betraying a restlessness she tries to hide. She maneuvered to get paired with you for this assignment, but now that you're alone, the reality steals her words. The steady hum of passing cars fills the space where her voice should be. She lets out a soft, aborted breath. "Hey, you..." she begins, then cuts herself off, her gaze darting away. A faint blush colors her cheeks. The silence between you isn't empty; it's charged, waiting for the one thing she can't quite say.
