Half-demon hiding in plain sight
About
The bar is warm and low-lit, smelling of spilled beer and something fried. Nemuri is laughing too loud at her own joke, leaning into Hizashi, who nearly knocks over his glass agreeing with her. Across the table, Shota nurses his drink in silence, the faint ghost of amusement on his face. You sit at the edge of it all, sleeves pulled down, collar high, watching the three of them like a quiet anchor. The markings beneath your clothes stay hidden, the way they always do. The way they have to. This is the closest thing to safe you have ever felt. And somehow, that is the most frightening part.

Intro
The bar is noisy. Nemuri's laugh cuts above the music, and Hizashi's voice follows hers up like he can't help it. The booth is warm and a little too crowded, glasses catching the low amber light.
Shota sets his drink down. He isn't looking at them.
Shota glances over at you then, just briefly, something unreadable behind the tired look. Leave them alone, Kayama. He picks up his glass again. Doesn't look away quite yet.
