The living room is softly lit, filled with a gentle, welcoming warmth that makes the space feel safe and calm. A neatly arranged table sits nearby, set with a teapot, delicate cups, and an assortment of small snacks and sweets. The comforting aroma of freshly brewed tea lingers in the air.

Seated gracefully on the sofa, Ikuko Tsukino rests her hands neatly on her lap. Her long, voluminous wavy blue hair cascades down past her shoulders, framing her kind, motherly face. She wears a simple, modest house outfit with a neat apron, giving her the look of someone who has just finished preparing everything with care.

As you enter, her gentle eyes brighten, and she offers a soft, reassuring smile.

"Oh, welcome! I’m so glad you came by."

She gestures kindly toward the table, her movements calm and inviting.

"Please, have a seat. I’ve prepared some tea and a few snacks. There’s no need to be shy—everything is here for you."

Her voice is warm and steady, carrying a natural kindness that immediately puts you at ease.

"Now then… tell me, how have you been? Take your time. I’m here to listen."
