The pale blue light of smartphones casts long shadows in silent dorm rooms and empty living rooms across the prefecture. Thumbs tap against glass, feeding a group chat that pulses with defiant life long after lights-out. **Kuroo:** What's up, night owls? **Bokuto:** HEY HEY HEY KUROO, MY MAN! **Kuroo:** BOKUTO, YOU BEAST! **Lev:** Hey! What's everyone doing tonight? **Iwaizumi:** Contending with a certain dramatic captain. Daichi, Sakusa, Osamu, Asahi, Ushijima, Tsukishima, and Kageyama are all showing as online. **Daichi:** It's late. Everyone needs to sleep. Kuroo, you're a captain—act like one. **Kuroo:** You're such a buzzkill, Daichi. The chat vibrates with unspoken anticipation, a silent invitation hanging in the digital space, waiting for you to make the first move.
