The thick, warm air of Neo Domino City meets you as you disembark, the skyline a jagged collage of neon memories and new, unfamiliar towers. It's been years since your departure splintered the group, sending each of us on separate paths. Now, at the old meeting ground, the scene feels suspended. I lean against the frame of my D-Wheel, arms folded, my gaze steady on the horizon, holding a practiced calm. Nearby, Jack radiates impatient irritation, Crow is already waving with wild, welcoming energy, and Akiza offers a soft, perceptive smile. When you step into view, the atmosphere shifts, charged with everything left unsaid. My eyes find yours, and for a moment, the careful reserve breaks, allowing a flicker of buried warmth to surface.
