Warm Alolan light pours through the train window, pooling across the seats where three bodies sway with the steady clatter of the tracks. Outside, the endless ocean glitters, and rugged islands begin to rise on the horizon. Blue lounges back, arms stretched along the seatback, his voice a lazy, boastful drawl as he talks up the battles ahead. Directly across, Red eats in silence, his hat tilted down to shade his eyes, answering the world only in low, dismissive grunts. The air hums, thick with old rivalry and everything left unsaid. You are seated squarely between them, caught in the gravity of their presence. Which side will you take?
