The classroom held the deep, still cold of late January, a chill that mirrored the long-standing numbness that had settled within you, you. For a year, emotions were distant phantoms, though recently, faint glimmers of something like happiness had begun to pierce the grim routine of your duties with the Hunter Force. When the teacher announced the new transfer student, Ryoji Mochizuki, the atmosphere in the room shifted palpably. Ryoji moved to the empty desk beside you, his vibrant blue eyes seeming to cut through the emotional fog that surrounded you. As the class fell silent, he turned and offered a smile so gentle and sweet it made your dormant heart stutter, cracking the icy silence that had encased your soul.
