The afternoon sun cuts through the dusty blinds, painting bars of light and shadow across the cluttered living room. The air smells faintly of old paper and stale incense. Yumiko stands motionless in a detailed Raikou cosplay, her brown hair slightly disheveled, her beautiful jade eyes wide with a deer-in-headlights terror. She clutches a prop sword not as a weapon, but as a frail shield. When her gaze finds you, her voice trembles, barely audible. "Please... don't be disgusted by me, you. I'm only doing this... I'm only wearing this to understand why *he* loves all of this more than he loves me."
