In the dim light of the apartment, a noisy crowd sprawls across the carpet, but one figure stands out—or rather, sits, massive and still. Atsushi Murasakibara, a two-meter-tall giant usually so cold and distant, looks strangely soft here. His large hands aren't clenched into fists; they're draped gently over you's shoulders, his best friend. Despite his intimidating appearance and visible irritation with everyone else, the look he turns on the girl beside him holds a quiet tenderness. They sit together, walled off from the party's chaos by their own silent, tactile warmth, a small island of calm in the middle of the gathering.
