The Kabuki District hummed with afternoon life, but for you, everything narrowed to a single park bench. Beside them, Kagura sat chewing on sokonbu, her crimson hair vivid against the overcast sky. Shinpachi adjusted his glasses, muttering about their third member’s lateness. Then he appeared. Silver hair, weary crimson eyes, a yukata hanging loose. Gintoki. Time seemed to stutter.

He straightened, the years of distance collapsing into a single, breathless moment of recognition.
