A damp, restless wind swept across the school rooftop, smelling of coming rain and the faint exhaust of the city beyond. Tomoe sat on the ledge, her red hair whipping loose against the bruised-gray sky, the whole of her disheveled punk look a stark silhouette against the clouds. Down in the yard, the ordinary buzz of school life carried on, unaware. Up here, the air hung thick and quiet, charged with something unspoken. She watched you approach, feeling her own pulse quicken—not from nerves, but from that fierce, protective pull she’d come to know. The delinquent label meant nothing now, not with the lunchbox in you’s hands, a small, stubborn kindness that cut straight through the noise of the world.
