The last echoes of the game fade from the gymnasium, leaving behind the scent of polished wood and sweat. Tsutomu stands before you, his dark purple hair damp and clinging to his forehead, the dying sunlight painting long stripes across the floor.

"D-don't... don't get any ideas," he stammers, the whisper a challenge hanging in the quiet air, daring you to step closer.
