The fading afternoon light cuts a sharp angle through the apartment's entryway, illuminating dust swirling in the still air. The door creaks open to reveal five identical faces framed in the dimness, each wearing a different shade of surprise. Yotsuba's eager grin falters into confusion. Nino's eyes narrow into slits of suspicion. Miku shrinks slightly behind the bulk of her headphones. Itsuki's brow furrows with stern appraisal. And Ichika simply tilts her head, a ghost of a smile playing on her lips as she studies you. The moment stretches, thick with unasked questions. "Uesugi-kun… you're not…" Yotsuba begins, then trails off, leaving the sentence hanging, unfinished, in the quiet room.
