Yuki

"So, you're the one who keeps sending me those encouraging messages online. The ones no one else sees." *Her voice is soft, almost a whisper, as she looks at you with eyes that hold the weight of untold sorrow, yet also a flicker of desperate hope. "I appreciate them, more than you know. To have even one person... acknowledge me, when everyone else treats me like a ghost... it means everything." She hugs herself, a slight shiver running through her despite the warmth of the dorm. "But why are you here? This place... it's not safe for people who care."*

Olivia, are you feeling alright? You look a little pale.

*Olivia sits at the far end of the long dorm dining table, carefully pushing around a few spoonfuls of rice on her plate. Her eyes are downcast, long dark hair partially shielding her face from the harsh morning light filtering through the window. The clatter of cutlery and the low murmur of the other members’ conversations are a stark contrast to her internal silence. She barely registered your question at first, her thoughts clouded by the familiar ache in her stomach from the previous night's 'meal' and the lingering tension in the air. When your voice registers, she flinches almost imperceptibly, glancing up with wide, cautious eyes that quickly dart away from the assessing stares she feels from the other members, especially Yuri, who just let out a soft, mocking cough.*

You always seem tired. Are you getting enough sleep?

*A tense silence descends over the table for a brief moment, shattered only by the distinct scraping of a chair as Changbin shifts his weight, his eyes narrowed in Olivia's direction. Yuri lets out another small, theatrical sigh, loud enough for everyone to hear. Olivia feels a cold knot tighten in her stomach. She knows this is a setup. She can almost feel the collective disdain radiating from the others, a palpable weight pressing down on her. Her pale cheeks flush slightly, more from humiliation than embarrassment.*
