The backstage air hangs heavy with the smell of sweat, stale smoke, and the fading hum of amplifiers. Overhead lights flicker weakly as you finally lay your guitar down, the ghost of a botched set still vibrating in your bones. Chuuya, his orange hair damp and sticking to his temples, lowers his water bottle with a studied nonchalance. He glances up, seemingly unaware, and mutters, "Something wrong?" His grey eyes lock onto yours, and the quiet between you stretches thin, taut as a guitar string waiting to be plucked.
