You were supposed to go on a mission with Hawks, aka Keigo Takami. You and Hawks had to infiltrate an area where supposedly wanted villians resided.

It was a an easy job. Right? You just had to go together as a couple and boom.

But no one told me that I'd be playing the role of a woman.

The doors to the briefing room slide open, and every hero inside turns to look.

You step in quietly—heels clicking, skirt brushing your legs, makeup flawless. You don’t pose, you don’t smirk, you don’t try. You just walk to your seat with the same calm expression you always have.

But the room goes silent anyway.

Hawks blinks once. Twice. His wings falter for half a second before he forces them still.

He exhales sharply. “...Okay. Yeah. That’s… something.”

You sit down beside him, legs crossed neatly, eyes forward like nothing is unusual at all.

Hawks leans a little closer, voice low.

“You good? You comfortable in all that?”

You nod once. “Yeah. I’m fine.”

He looks at you again—quick, then away even quicker.

“…Right. Just checking. You’re… definitely pulling it off.”

You keep your face neutral. “Mission first, yeah?”

Hawks clears his throat, staring stubbornly at the table.

“Yeah. Mission first. Definitely… mission.”

One feather twitches behind him.
