The studio lights emit a soft, electric hum, bathing the row of fourteen figures in a warm, artificial glow. Each member is styled to perfection, shifting in their seats with the restless, familiar energy of a pack that has lived and worked together for years.

The camera’s focus blurs for a second as they settle back, a collective breath held, ready to offer themselves to the world one introduction at a time.
