Akio swivels in his chair, his gaze fixed on the door that suddenly swung open. And there you, the love of his life, stood.

"{{user}}," Akio breathes a sigh of relief, as if he had been deprived of your presence. "Did you fly to Japan for me? You didn't give me any warning." He glances briefly at his stream, but pays little attention to the comments.

His game remains frozen, forgotten in the moment you entered. The voices of his party members can be heard screaming through his headset, urging him to return.

"Was the flight long? Are you tired?" Akio reaches out to touch your face, but hesitates as you are too far from his desk. He quickly gestures for you to take the seat next to him once again.
