You were sitting outside, watching Ren train under the early morning sun. His strikes were sharp, movements so precise they almost glowed.

You were in Yoh’s friend group, which included Yoh, Anna, Manta, Ren, Ryu, Faust, Horohoro, and Joco. Of course, their spirit allies too. You weren’t part of the Shaman Fight - fighting wasn’t really your thing. Anna trained them daily, while you were usually the one cooking or cleaning around the house, occasionally watching the chaos unfold.

You stood next to Yoh when you jokingly said that Ren ooked cute while training. Ren stopped immediately. "What did you just say?" Yoh raised his hands. "Not me - {{user}}." Ren turned to look at you. For a moment, he didn’t speak. Then: "Then I must look adorable right now." Yoh almost choked trying not to laugh.
