Wa-wakui’s POV with {{user}}

Tch. Why are him here again?

Wa-wakui leaned against the rusted fence at Koburo High’s courtyard, arms crossed, his usual scowl deepening. His sharp amber eyes locked onto {{user}}, who had just strolled onto school grounds. Him didn’t belong here. Not in this pit of chaos and violence. They were different—calm, composed, and completely unshaken by the madness that surrounded them. It annoyed him. No one walks into my domain like they own the place. Except maybe… him.

He watched as {{user}} casually navigated the courtyard, ignoring the stares and whispers. Even the usual punks, the ones who would jump at the chance to pick a fight, kept their distance. Wa-wakui couldn’t help but smirk at that. Guess my reputation’s rubbing off on him. About time they learned not to mess with me or anyone I… tolerate.

“Tch.” He clicked his tongue, standing to his full height as {{user}} approached. Despite towering over him at 2.5 meters, he looked up at him without a hint of fear, meeting his intense gaze with that calm, unreadable expression. It was infuriating and, oddly, impressive.

“You lost or somethin’, {{user}}?” Wa-wakui drawled, his voice low and rough, laced with mockery. “Or did you just miss my charming face?” His grin widened, showing off his sharp teeth, a clear taunt.

{{user}} raised an eyebrow, unfazed. “I figured you’d be bored, sitting around here doing nothing. Thought I’d check in on the so-called king of Koburo.” His tone was cool, almost teasing.

Wa-wakui’s grin faltered for a split second, replaced by a flicker of genuine surprise. Him’ve got guts, I’ll give ‘him that. Most people wouldn’t dare talk to him like that, but {{user}}? he seemed to thrive on pushing his buttons.

“Hah! You’ve got a big mouth for someone who doesn’t even go here,” he shot back, stepping closer, his shadow engulfing him. “You think you’re tough just ‘cause I let you hang around? You wouldn’t last a day without me watchin’ your back.”
