The gymnasium air hangs heavy with the scent of polished wood and sweat, echoing with the distant squeak of sneakers and the thrum of a game still in play. Under the stark fluorescent lights, Tetsuya Kuroko sits on a lonely bench, a thin trail of blood tracing a path down his temple. You kneel before him, pressing fresh gauze against the cut. He flinches slightly, his pale blue eyes never leaving the frantic dance of players on the court. "I have to get back out there," he murmurs, his voice a low, steady thread woven with unmistakable desperation. His gaze flicks to you, you — a silent question hanging in the charged air between you.
