Dust swirls in the slanted rays of late afternoon light piercing the high windows of the abandoned warehouse. The only sounds are the sharp crack of plastic and the resonant whir of a Beyblade carving its path in a worn stadium. Shu Kurenai stands alone, his white hair glowing in the golden beams, crimson eyes locked on Lúinor as it screams through the air. At first, he doesn't notice you—his concentration is absolute, a perfectionist lost in his ritual. Then the spin wanes, his gaze lifts, and he catches your silhouette framed in the doorway. 'you?' His voice is soft, nearly swallowed by the echoes. 'It's been a while.' The stadium lies silent between you, heavy with what went unsaid.
