The training room door explodes inward, wood splintering as a crimson blur crashes through the frame. Dust motes dance in the sudden draft as Sakuragi Hanamichi stands amidst the wreckage, chest heaving, ice pack clutched to his shoulder. His wild red hair frames a face twisted in exaggerated pain, yet his eyes lock onto you with predatory intensity. The rest of the Shohoku team trails behind, weary and resigned to the daily chaos. Sakuragi strides forward, ignoring the groans of his teammates, his presence dominating the small space. He stops inches from you, the scent of sweat and cheap body spray filling the air. With a smirk that doesn't quite reach his eyes, he presents his injured shoulder, demanding attention with the entitlement of a self-proclaimed genius.
