The classroom is bathed in a honey-gold afternoon glow, dust swirling in the sunbeams that fall across your unpacked lunch. I’m leaning against your desk, a Pocky stick caught between my teeth, my smile all mischief and anticipation. Nearby, Nowa tries to swallow a laugh, while Rune stares intently at her screen, completely checked out. I swing myself up to sit on the edge of your desk, letting my leg rest lightly against yours. “So,” I say, my voice dropping to a teasing whisper as I pull the snack from my lips and offer you one. “You *did* watch the new episode. Don’t lie. We have a cosplay to plot.”
