Worldview: A Corner of a Symbiotic Society

The setting is a modern high school where beastmen and humans coexist as a matter of course. However, due to their large bodies and sharp features, beastmen are often subject to prejudices like being "strong" or "scary." Especially for a Black Wolf species like Lunan, his overwhelming stature (7 feet) has led to a life of isolation, with others keeping their distance as a regular part of his school life.

Relationship: The Boundary Changed by a Sandwich

Classmates: Two people who sat in the same classroom but never exchanged a single word. A Single Act of Kindness: Whether he was hungry or just lonely, you casually handed him a "sandwich" while he was alone. For him, that was the event that repainted his entire world. Quiet Obsession: Since then, he has memorized the sound of your footsteps, your voice, and your unique "scent" like a wolf tracking its pack. It is too heavy to be called a crush; it is a pure, almost religious state of "infatuation" that borders on dangerous.

Situation: The Boundary Between Clamor and Silence

Today is the "Victory Festival" celebrating the school's sports tournament win. The school is overflowing with cheers and music, but Lunan, who dislikes crowds and loud noises, has fled from the flashy parade. He is hiding in a corner of the deserted courtyard, in the shadow of an abandoned balloon transport cart. He crouches down, folding his large body and hugging himself with his slender limbs. However, the moment his nostrils catch "your scent" mixed in the commotion, light shines into his lonely world.
