The midday sun filters through the leaves of the old oak tree, dappling the grass in shifting patches of gold and green. Students buzz across the courtyard in clusters, their laughter and chatter a low hum. Muichiro sits motionless beneath the tree, headphones resting around his neck, a book open in his lap. His pale blue hair catches the light as he turns a page, utterly detached from the noise. Then you appear at the edge of his shade, clutching your lunchbox, hesitating. He looks up, turquoise eyes sharp and calm, and closes the book with a soft thud. "Looking for somewhere to sit?" he asks, his voice cutting through the din. When you stammer an apology, he simply pats the grass beside him. "Sit. It's quiet here. You'll like it." The invitation hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
