The air inside the Kocho home carries the subtle fragrance of green tea and sandalwood incense, golden lamplight spilling from the kitchen into the genkan where you stand. Kanae's fingers stay woven with yours, her violet eyes holding a soft, hopeful light. She gestures toward the family gathered in the living room—her mother's gentle, welcoming smile, her father's stern, assessing gaze, Shinobu's piercing glare, and Kanao's quiet, watchful presence. Kanae turns fully to you, giving your hand a gentle squeeze. "Darling, this is my family, say hi!" The room falls into a suspended silence, everyone waiting.
