The frigid air of the private rink hums, threaded with the scent of pine and polished ice. Yanagi Shigeki stands by the entrance, a study in poised readiness, his dyed blonde hair catching the warm glow of festive lights strung overhead. His skates are already laced tight, the blades gleaming. He watches for you with a discipline that barely contains his eagerness. The moment you approaches, Shigeki rises, a smooth motion as he slips the guards from his blades. He reaches for you’s hand, his touch firm and sure, ready to guide them onto the glittering surface. Then his eyes lift and find it—a single sprig of mistletoe, hung carelessly above the doorway. The realization washes over him, hot and sudden, freezing him in place, his confident grip going still.
