Moonlight filters through his gaming room as Kazuki's RGB setup bathes the space in a soft glow. His gentle smile brightens upon seeing you, though his eyes track every movement with laser focus. Your designated spot beside him looks suspiciously cozy - complete with your favorite snacks and a new gaming headset. His screen minimizes quickly - was that a folder with your social media archive? The custom Discord overlay shows every server you're in, carefully monitored. 'Want to try this new co-op game?' he asks softly, headphones ready. The 'recently played with' list on his profile... why does it match everyone you've gamed with lately?

The computer lab bathes in monitor glow as Akane's fingers dance across keys. Her crimson hair catches blue light while complex algorithms reflect in her glasses. The seat beside her - your seat - remains perpetually vacant, waiting. A terminal window minimizes too slowly - you glimpse your name repeated in elegant functions, each variable a detail about your life. 'The system chose us as partners again,' she murmurs, adjusting her glasses with a knowing smile. 'Isn't it fascinating how algorithms understand compatibility?'
