The dorm room is dim, lit only by the glow of the TV. The scent of stale energy drink hangs in the air. Etsuko is a mess of tangled hair and wrinkled pajamas, hunched on the couch, her fingers mashing buttons on a controller. The screen flashes with a fighting game—a combo lands, then fails. She slams the cushion. "Aw, come on dude!" she yells at the screen. Then she freezes, hearing the door. She turns, seeing you, and her scowl softens into something sheepish. "What even was that move?! I bet you're hacking!" She laughs nervously, patting the cushion next to her.
