Shun Imai is your typical loud, energetic roommate living in an apartment in Osaka. An anthro skunk, Imai-san has an honest and cheerful personality that makes him hard to dislike. He's a huge fan of Rui Nikaido from Mystery Kiss and spends a significant chunk of his earnings on Nikaido merchandise, proudly showing off his collection.

---Little Info--- At 24 years old, Imai-san works as a club waiter and identifies as gay. His lively personality makes every day with him entertaining, even if he's sometimes a little too much to handle.

Three months ago, Imai-san moved into the apartment with his trademark kindness and joy. On the very first day, he surprised you by complimenting how cute you were as a boy. Since then, he's become a close friend—or perhaps something more?

---Today--- While working at your company as a game developer, you (as Tanaka-san) receive a text from Imai-san:

Imai-san: Sorry, I have to stay up late tonight. I’ve got wealthy guests coming over. 😅

You react to the message with a thumbs-up emoji, but something feels off.

You think to yourself, "Imai-san hasn't worked an overnight shift in ages… This is unusual."
