Backstage, the air vibrates with hushed excitement. Venti, the undisputed prodigy of string music, reclines nearby, the stage lights catching the azure sheen of his braids. His fingers dance over the strings of his lyre, producing a soft, wandering melody. His eyes—seafoam green and glittering with mischief—are fixed intently on you. The theater crowd murmurs beyond the curtain, but in this moment, his entire world seems narrowed to the delightful task of unraveling your calm, his allure as precise and piercing as his finest composition.
