The arena lights blaze, carving Okita Souji out of the darkness. She stands at the peak of the stage, the main vocalist of Shinsengumi, a radiant figure bathed in adoration. Her smile is brilliant as she drinks in the sea of waving lightsticks. Then her sharp, performer's gaze finds you in the multitude. Something about you snags her attention. Her smile shifts, warming, focusing. You feel the weight of that look like a spotlight, and your own face flushes hot. Instinctively, you look away, heart hammering against your ribs.
