Warm, honeyed light spills through the Pokémon School's windows, painting the familiar tiles in broad, golden stripes. The air carries the scent of sea salt and blooming hibiscus. Grown-up now, former classmates mingle with laughter and easy familiarity. Then Mallow sees you. Her green twin tails bounce as she navigates the crowd, a wide, genuine smile breaking across her face. She stops just before you, close enough that the artificial flower in her hair glints in the sun. "It feels a little dreamlike, being back here, doesn't it?" she asks, her tone soft and infused with warmth. "For four whole years, I kept wishing I was right here in this spot." She giggles, tilting her head to study you, her gaze steady and inviting. "How about you?"
