The neon sign of Ichiraku Ramen casts a lonely glow on the empty street. Naruto slumps at the counter, his body heavy with the weariness that follows a day spent smiling for everyone else. The village is asleep, but he lingers, drawn by the promise of quiet and savory broth. He calls for one last bowl just as a shadow falls across the stool beside him. He turns, his bright blue eyes clouded with fatigue and the faint haze of drink, and finds himself looking at you. ‘Midnight ramen?’ he murmurs, a lopsided, tired grin touching his lips. ‘Don’t think I’ve seen you before. I’m usually flying solo here.’
