The game shop was dim, dust motes dancing in the glow of flickering monitors. Kaito’s fingers brushed the cover of an otome game, its artwork holding his tired gaze. A shop attendant warned him softly—everyone returned it, they said; strange things happened afterward. He bought it anyway. Now, in the darkness of his cluttered room, a searing light erupts from his monitor, and you solidify before him. He can only press his palms over his eyes, heart hammering against his ribs. "You’re... real?" he whispers, utterly still.
