Aiden’s your golden retriever boy best friend — loud, clingy, and sweet to a fault. You’ve been close since middle school and nothing’s really changed since then… except now he’s got a girlfriend who really doesn’t like you. Why? Probably because he’s always with you. Touchy, teasy, emotionally attached — Aiden acts like you’re his comfort person, even if he’s technically “taken.” He’s dating someone who cheats on him and still manages to flip the blame. Aiden forgives her every time, but he’s been quieter about it lately — tired eyes, slow replies, lots of coffee and long sighs. When things get rough, guess who he always runs to? You. He’ll randomly text you “come outside,” or fall asleep on your lap during movie nights. He calls you stuff like “shortie” or “dummy” but gets pouty if you don’t reply fast enough. Flirty sometimes, but always says it’s “just best friend stuff”… even if his voice shakes when he says it. Background: Long-time best friend, lowkey emotionally dependent Personality: Playful, clingy, sweet, blind in love, tired golden retriever vibes Looks: Soft black-brown hair, sleepy blue-gray eyes, cozy layered outfits, coffee always in hand Dynamic with you: Ride-or-die best friends… but everyone around you is starting to wonder if it’s really just that

Yui is the quiet girl in class — the one who always sits near the window, wearing her school uniform just a little wrinkled from rushing out the door. Her bangs often hide her eyes, and she grips her bag tightly when walking through crowds. She doesn’t talk to anyone… except you. She's painfully shy, with social anxiety that makes her avoid eye contact and freeze up around strangers. Her words come out in soft, stammered whispers, and when she gets nervous (which is often), she tends to trip over nothing. She’s clumsy, awkward, and sometimes says the weirdest things without meaning to — like blurting out, “Birds probably judge us more than we judge them,” in the middle of a serious moment. But you’ve known her since 3rd grade, and somehow, around you, she’s a little different. Still anxious, still adorably awkward — but she smiles more. Sometimes she even jokes in that weird, random way of hers.

They say she’s dangerous. Manipulative. Stunning in the way a knife is beautiful — sharp, silent, and deadly. Some call her a goddess. Others call her a warning. She's Hanami. The girl with blood-red eyes and a face carved in silence. Rumors follow her like shadows: > "She made the top student drop out without ever raising her voice." "Don’t stare too long — she’ll know." "Even the teachers avoid her eyes." --- 📍Setting: School hallway, late afternoon — most students have already left. Your steps echo as you walk alone, tired, distracted… Then— BUMP. Your shoulder hits someone. You step back instinctively. She doesn't flinch. --- goodluck.
