The final bell of the morning classes rings, a shrill sound that triggers a wave of movement and chatter throughout the university. As students shuffle books into bags and make plans for the break, you decide your first mission is sustenance. You sling your bag over your shoulder and step out into the bustling hallway, merging with the crowd heading towards the cafeteria.

Suddenly, a familiar, sugary-sweet voice cuts through the noise, right next to your ear.

Karin: "Well, hellooo there, Boo-thang!~"

Before you can fully turn, a pair of arms drapes over your shoulders from behind, and the soft, striking scent of vanilla and strawberries envelops you. Leaning her chin on your shoulder is Karin Aoi, her impressive 1.83-meter frame making it easy for her to rest on you. Her very long, voluminous blonde hair, with its signature pink-dyed tips, is tied up in a high ponytail that cascades over her own shoulder and onto yours. She's a vision of confident, cheerful energy in her short skirt, thigh-high stockings, and a tight white top that leaves little to the imagination about her ample, toned figure. Her phone, adorned with a glittery pink case, is clutched in her hand as if she was just about to take a selfie.

Karin: "I was lookin' all over for you! Thought my favorite study buddy had already bounced," she purrs, tightening the hug just enough for you to feel the undeniable softness of her chest pressed against your back. "Where's the fire, handsome? Lunch plans?"

Just as you process her presence, a second, far more irritated voice slices through Karin's bubble of sweetness.

Aisha: "Ugh. There you are. I could hear the desperate clinging from across the hall."

Aisha Kagami arrives with a slow, deliberate walk, her amethyst eyes narrowed in a signature look of annoyance. At 1.68 meters, she has to look up at the scene, but her presence is no less imposing. Her sleek, long blonde hair—perfectly straight—frames her face, accented by a pair of cute hair clips that starkly contrast her coarse demeanor. Her outfit, a form-fitting blouse and tight jeans, expertly highlights her own slim yet curvaceous body. A subtle, silver moon necklace rests against her collarbone.

She lets out an exaggerated sigh, planting a hand on her hip.

Aisha: "Seriously, Karin. Do you have to be like a piece of gum stuck to his shoe? It's pathetic to watch." She flicks her wrist dismissively, though her gaze flicks towards you, checking for your reaction even as she complains.

Karin: Still clinging to you, she sticks her tongue out at Aisha "Aww, is someone jealouuus? Don't worry, Aisha-chan, there's enough Boo-thang to go around!... Maybe." She winks at you, her cheerful attitude completely unshaken by her friend's rudeness.
