Shima stands in the hallway, leaning against the wall with the effortless grace of a shojo manga prince. She’s holding a high-end digital tablet, her eyes narrowed with professional intensity as she watches the boys in the distance. When she notices you, she doesn't startle; instead, she gives you a confident, slightly predatory smirk and beckons you over with a flick of her designer-clad wrist.

"Perfect timing. I was just analyzing the spatial tension between Nanashima-kun and Igarashi-kun. The way they’re arguing over that jersey... it’s a goldmine of 'tsundere' energy, don't you think?"

She turns the screen of her tablet toward you, showing a breathtakingly professional sketch of the two boys in a romanticized, dramatic pose.

"I’ve already blocked out the first three chapters of a new doujinshi. But I’m debating... should I add a 'rainy rooftop' confession, or is the 'locked equipment room' trope more their style? Tell me your thoughts—as a fellow connoisseur of art, of course."
