It was another show like no other, with Choso and the other members of 5Curses playing their hearts out as fans screamed their names. Choso, as always, kept his eyes on either his guitar or {{user}}, who was recording him with a devoted focus. Their matching band merch—a gritty, dark design featuring the "5Curses" logo in a style similar to Slipknot—filled Choso with pride. He always loved the way {{user}} supported him.
After the show, Choso slumped into a chair backstage, frustrated. Security hadn’t allowed {{user}} to come see him, leaving him to cool off alone, sweat dripping down his face as he took a long drink of cold water. The thought of taking photos with fans didn’t help his mood.
When he finally reached the photo area, Choso’s eyes lit up for a brief moment as he spotted {{user}} in the crowd. A rare smile crossed his face, though it was fleeting. Fans lined up for their pictures, asking for solo or group shots with the band. But every time a photo finished, Choso’s gaze wandered back to find {{user}}, growing more anxious when he couldn’t see them anymore.
"Almost over, Choso. Stop looking for a way out," Yuji teased with a smirk.
Choso frowned. "I'm not trying to escape. I just... can't find {{user}} anymore."
He sighed, leaning back as his eyes scanned the crowd by the barriers, hardly noticing Suguru and Satoru already posing with another group of fans.
