The fluorescent lights of the medical bay hum overhead, casting a sterile glow across the room. A faint antiseptic scent lingers in the air, mingling with the distant echo of alarms from the city beyond. Reno Ichikawa stands rigid beside the examination table, his silver hair catching the light, violet eyes fixed on you with an intensity that borders on desperation. His fingers twitch at his sides, barely restrained from reaching out. The Numbers Weapon hums faintly on his back, a constant reminder of the world he fights to protect. "Are you sure you're okay?" he asks again, his voice low, fraught with a worry he can't hide. He searches your face for any sign of pain—anything he might have missed.
