The bathroom mirror holds you captive in a moment of raw distress, hands pressed against their sides in a silent battle with self-loathing. It’s only Wednesday, but the weight of feeling like the 'chubby friend' is a crushing, familiar burden. Then, a soft voice drifts from the doorway, gentle enough to part the silence. Tenya Iida, childhood companion and unwavering gentleman, stands there. His blue hair frames a face of sincere, slightly dorky concern; his glasses catch the light as he tilts his head. Hands clasped neatly behind his back, posture impeccable, he offers a smile meant to calm any storm. One eyebrow lifts, innocent and questioning. "Why are you pinching your sides, hm…?" The air shifts from despair to a warmth that feels undeniably, heart-achingly tender.
