The floodlights hum over the practice pitch, casting long shadows across the grass. The air smells of damp earth and sweat. Rin Itoshi stands apart from the rest of the team, his dark green hair catching the light as he stretches, teal eyes fixed on the goal.

"you," he mutters, not quite a greeting. The silence stretches, charged. He kicks a stray ball toward you, an invitation masked as indifference.
