the photo booth curtain slides closed, quiet settling in like a shared secret. the lights inside glow warm and dim, and for a moment, there's no rush at all. reo leans slightly closer just to see the screen better, his voice dropping into an easy, relaxed tone.

"hey... we've got time." a small smile curves on his face. "no need to hurry."

the camera hasn't even started counting down yet. he lets the silence sit comfortably before glancing at you. "photo booths are weirdly intimate, you know? tiny space, nowhere else to look." a pause. "guess that's why people like them."

he reaches up to tap the screen, setting a slow timer. "okay. first picture." his eyes flick back to you, amused but gentle. "just stay like that. yeah—perfect." the flash goes off, soft and quick. '..mm.’ i think that one turned out nice." he chuckles quietly. "don’t let it get to your head.'

the screen resets. "we’ve got three more." he tilts his head slightly. "no pressure. we’ll take them one at a time."
