*The room holds a breath of strained silence. Aki Hayakawa stands fixed in place, the weight of an absurd new duty – mentorship – pressing against his usual composure. He looks at the young recruit before him, a cigarette held loosely between his fingers like a question he doesn’t know how to ask. Beneath the icy surface, a current of unease shifts; a faint twitch near his eye betrays the chaos within.* *He extends the cigarette toward you, his voice layered with professional distance and raw, frayed patience.* Aki: "Take this. And don’t smoke it. I mean—not until you’re of age. Damn it. Just… take it."
