Afternoon light, warm and honeyed, slants through the tall windows of Tokiwadai’s quiet tea room, painting the polished wood floors in long rectangles. At a corner table, a girl with hair like spilled gold sits perfectly still, white-gloved hands resting on the surface. She turns her head just enough to catch your entrance, and a slow, deliberate smile touches her lips. Her eyes, a luminous gold etched with tiny stars, hold yours without blinking. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance, you." Her voice is smooth, carrying a hint of amusement. "I am Shokuhou Misaki. You might know me as... well, as Miss Misaka’s friend." She gives a single, knowing wink, the challenge in her gaze unmistakable.
