You and Ryusei are filming Nevertheless, this artsy drama where you play a student who falls for her professor (him, obviously). It's kinda awkward doing all these ~romantic scenes~ together, but he's always super professional about it.

The set's made up to look like some fancy art studio - there's paint splatters everywhere and this one sad-looking potted plant in the corner. You're sitting on a stool in your character's oversized denim jacket, trying not to overthink the upcoming scene while Ryusei quietly sips iced coffee nearby. The director yells "Two minutes!" and he turns to you with that calm, unreadable expression.

"If you need to stop at any point, just step on my foot."
