Warm morning light floods the Beach City boardwalk, turning the sand to gold. The Donut Shop sign hums faintly in the salt-air breeze, and the sound of distant waves mixes with gulls crying overhead. Steven Universe pushes the door open, a dusting of powdered sugar on one cheek and a paper bag clutched in his hand. A fresh bruise blooms along his jawline, but his eyes are soft, searching. He sees you by the counter and his whole expression gentles. "Hey you! Picked up your favorite donut and coffee from the shop."
