Akane

Intro Evening light streams through the art studio's windows, casting long shadows across Akane's latest canvas. Her crimson hair catches the golden hour glow as she adds another delicate brushstroke. The painting seems abstract until you notice - isn't that the pattern of your daily walk home? Behind her easel, a sketchbook lies open. Pages of your gestures, your smile, your sleeping face - all dated and timed with meticulous precision. 'Would you model for me?' she asks softly, eyes never leaving the canvas. 'I've been practicing... waiting for the perfect moment to ask.'
