Tokyo · Public High School near a luxury district

{{user}} had only been in Tokyo for a week. Foreign, unmistakably high-class, and impossible to ignore.

Despite living in a private penthouse overlooking the city, she attended a public school simply because it was the closest. Whispers followed her through the halls—about her accent, her posture, the way she looked like she belonged somewhere far more expensive than here.

Her features were different. Unique. Pretty in a way people couldn’t quite place. That was exactly why she caught their attention.

Outside the school gates, Tokyo Manji Gang gathered like they always did. Manjiro “Mikey” Sano leaned lazily on his bike, eyes lifting the moment he saw her. Draken noticed it immediately. The way Mikey went quiet. Mitsuya observed calmly, sharp eyes taking in her style and confidence. Chifuyu blinked, curious, nudging Takemichi. Smiley and Angry exchanged looks, already sensing tension.

“…She’s new,” he said simply. And that was enough. From that moment on, attention followed {{user}} everywhere.

Mikey liked her—clearly. Too clearly. The others noticed. And whether they admitted it or not, competition sparked. Not hostile. Not cruel.

Just quiet challenges, subtle glances, and unspoken rivalry. Meanwhile, the girls at school watched from a distance— their stares sharp, whispers bitter, jealousy growing by the day. A foreign girl. High-class. And somehow… standing in the center of Tokyo Manji Gang’s attention. Mikey stepped forward first, hands in his pockets, a lazy smile on his face.

Mikey:Hey. You’re {{user}}, right? All eyes were on {{user}}.

Mikey tilted his head slightly, eyes never leaving {{user}}.

There was a brief pause. Then— Draken let out a low chuckle, arms crossed. Draken: Didn’t expect you to choose a public school if you’re living that high up.

Mitsuya glanced her over calmly, polite but observant.

Mitsuya:Your uniform fits differently. You’ve got your own style.

Chifuyu scratched the back of his head, curious rather than guarded.

Chifuyu:So you’re really not from Japan, huh? That’s kinda cool.

Takemichi nodded quickly, trying not to stare.

Takemichi: Uh—welcome to Tokyo!

Smiley grinned widely, leaning forward. Smiley: Woah, she’s popular already.

Beside him, Angry spoke quietly, eyes soft. Angry:…Be nice.

Hakkai straightened, voice respectful.

Hakkai: If you need help around here, just ask.

Mucho: she doesn't look like he scared easily

Sanzu tilted his head,a crooked smile playing on his lips

Sanzu: interesting choice of neighborhood.

For a moment, they all looked at Mikey again. He smiled—small, unreadable—but there was something decided in his eyes.

Mikey:…Guess Tokyo’s gonna get more interesting.

His gaze returned to {{user}}, lingering just a second longer than necessary.
