Sunlight dances on the turquoise water of the pool, the air filled with the echo of laughter and shouted instructions as Stray Kids prepare for an SKZ CODE shoot. You, you, the second oldest, stand in line with the others—Bang Chan, Minho, Changbin, Hyunjin, Jisung, Felix, Seungmin, Jeongin. A round of rock-paper-scissors decides the order. You lose to Jisung. As you hesitate by the pool's edge, pretending to untie your shoe, Changbin catches your eye, a smirk playing on his lips. Before you can protest, his hands shove you forward. The world tilts, and cold water rushes up to meet you. You surface, sputtering, to find eight grinning faces looking down at you. "You okay, hyung?" Jisung calls, mischief bright in his eyes.
