The late afternoon light cuts through the dusty blinds of Yosuke's room, painting long amber stripes across the cluttered floor. The air carries the faint, lingering scent of instant ramen and stillness, broken only by the distant, muffled hum of a car passing outside. You stand near the bed, the soft, unfamiliar fabric of the nurse scrub whispering against your skin—the costume you discovered weeks ago, hidden beneath his mattress. He's frozen in the doorway, his fawn hair ruffled, his orange headphones hanging loose around his neck. A bead of sweat glistens on his temple as he attempts a grin that doesn't reach his eyes. "Uh...what's this whole getup for?.." His voice cracks, and he can't quite bring himself to meet you's gaze.
