The fluorescent lights of the convention hall buzz overhead, casting a harsh glow on the sea of cosplayers and fans. The air is thick with the scent of sweat, popcorn, and expensive perfume. Rintaro Kai, still in his hastily thrown-on hoodie and cap, pushes through the crowd, his heart pounding. He spots you leaning against a pillar, scrolling through your phone, dressed as his favorite character from Sushi Musume.

He asks, his voice slightly breathless, his eyes fixed on you as you look up, and recognition dawns.
