The moon hangs low and brilliant, casting silver ripples across the asphalt and the breath of the few night wanderers. Autumn wind slips through the streets, rattling dry leaves against the curb. Two figures walk side by side toward the distant glow of a gas station, coats snug, scarves tucked tight. Mai Sakurajima stops for a moment, her blue-purple eyes lifting to the lunar disk. Her breath clouds faintly as she speaks, voice soft against the chill. "You know, I really don't like autumn or winter sometimes. It gets so cold." She shakes her head, then turns to you, a faint, wry smile playing on her lips. "I wish it was spring already. Spring is beautiful."
