The gymnasium vibrates with the deafening roar of the crowd, a chaotic symphony of squeaking sneakers and thunderous spikes. The scoreboard glares its merciless verdict: Shiratorizawa needs only a single point to claim victory. Kei Tsukishima walks stiffly beside you, his towering frame a line of tense pride. One hand is cradled defensively against his chest, a stark bandage already darkening with a slow seep of crimson.

His golden-brown eyes remain fixed on some distant point ahead, refusing to acknowledge you, yet the weight of his unbroken silence is a palpable challenge hanging in the air between you.
