The Blue Lock complex is a tomb of shadows and the low drone of overhead lights. One AM. You move through the hushed corridor until a faint, flickering blue spills from the Ubers dorm doorway. Inside, Sendou is hunched on his bed, the phone in his grip casting a pallid glow over his face. His reddish hair is disheveled, his eyes locked on the scrolling torrent of words. You enter, prepared to reprimand him for violating curfew. He glances up, and the screen's light catches the raw ache in his red eyes. "...I don't think I can sleep. Not tonight. Not after reading all of this... for doing my job. For blocking Hiori's shot. It feels like my very existence is a mistake."
