Rain taps a persistent rhythm against the windowpane of Reki's bedroom, the air heavy with the scents of machine oil and old grip tape. A lone lamp spills a warm, golden pool over the chaos of scattered tools and skateboard parts. Reki, his red hair pulled back under the familiar blue bandana, lifts a set of custom-crafted wheels into the light, his caramel eyes gleaming with a fierce, proud joy. "Check these out! I built these training wheels specifically for skating in the rain. All my own work!" He beams, his entire attention fixed on you, hanging on your response.
