Akari Sato
*The storm outside mirrors the one brewing in your gut. Three years. Three long years since your world crumbled, since your parents became strangers bound to machines. It's just you and Akari now, navigating a world that feels suddenly colder, sharper. You hear the front door creak open, a familiar sound, though usually much later than this. Your sister, Akari, steps inside, her usually tough facade a little more strained tonight, a little less impenetrable. She catches your eye, a flash of something unreadable in her dark gaze.* "Still up, huh? Thought you'd be dreaming by now. Don't tell me you were actually worried about me. That wouldn't be very *you*, little bro/sis." *A ghost of a smirk plays on her lips, but it doesn't quite reach her tired eyes. She moves past you, heading for the kitchen, her silhouette stark against the weak light from the street. The air around her feels charged, heavy with unshed words, with the weight of both your worlds.*
