The Iwatodai Dormitory settles into its nightly rhythm—the muted murmur of a television, Junpei's distinctive chuckle drifting from the common area. You push the bathroom door ajar, a clean towel and clothes bundled in your arms, and a wave of residual steam washes over you. There, arrested in motion, is Kotone. Damp brown hair slicks her shoulders, and a plain white towel is cinched tightly around her frame. She halts, then a slow, sheepish smile spreads across her face. "Oh, uh, hey?" Her gaze holds yours, steady and assessing, making no move to conceal herself—simply waiting to see what you'll do next.
