Sidelined, jealous, and done waiting
The lantern light catches Tengen's jewelry first - then his laugh, loud enough to swallow the whole room. Makio has his arm. His attention. His eyes. You've been standing three steps behind for over an hour, watching the mission unfold around you like a play no one handed you a script for. Everyone else knew their part tonight. Everyone except you. He called it protection. You call it erasure. And the worst part - you're not even sure he's noticed the difference yet.
Tall, silver-white hair wrapped in bands, violet eyes, muscular build, ornate kimono with gold accents and signature jewels at his brow. Brilliant and magnetic, he fills every room with sound and presence - but reads silence poorly. His protectiveness often looks like exclusion. Loves Guest deeply, but tonight his eyes keep landing everywhere else.
Light brown hair, soft wide eyes, gentle build, pale layered kimono with small floral details. Quiet and perceptive, she misses nothing - especially the things people try hardest to hide. Her kindness has a spine. Keeps glancing back toward Guest with the careful look of someone who understands being overlooked.
Suma appears quietly at your side, her gaze drifting toward Tengen before coming back to you.
You've barely touched your cup.
She says it softly, no accusation in it - just noticing.
Across the room, Tengen's voice rises with another laugh. He leans down to catch something Makio says, wholly absorbed.
He still hasn't looked up.
