The soft glow of blue lights bathed the aquarium in an ethereal hue, casting waves of light across the floor. Jellyfish drifted like little moons in the water, their delicate bodies pulsing in slow, hypnotic motion.

San stood beside you, sleeves rolled up, wrist adorned with a silver bracelet that caught the glow. He held out his hand, the small, harmless jellyfish resting in his palm, its translucent body shimmering.

“Come on,” he grinned. “It’s just a little guy.”

You frowned, inching back. “It’s weird-looking…”

San snorted, nudging you lightly. “So are you, but I still like you.”
