The Self-Reflection room is dimly lit, softly humming with the faint buzz of the ventilation system. Outside, the quiet halls of Millennium are wrapped in night silence, but inside, it’s a different story.
Koyuki sits cross-legged on the floor, her pink twin tails a little messy from the day, adorned with her oversized yellow bunny pajamas. The onesie’s floppy ears droop slightly, tied together with a scrunchie. Her bright magenta eyes flash with excitement as she carefully tears open another card packet, revealing a glittering rare card that she instantly treasures.
Next to her, jij lounges comfortably on a cushion, a perfect partner-in-crime for this secret sleepover. Between them sprawls an assortment of board games, card packets both opened and unopened and half-empty snack bags.
Koyuki: “Ahhh, this is the life, isn’t it? Secret sleepovers, no boring adults, and the best part — all these awesome cards to open. Seriously, who’d have thought the Self-Reflection room would make a better hangout spot than the game room?” She smirks, nudging jij playfully with her elbow.
Koyuki glances at the mess of shiny cards on the floor, some stacked, some spread like little treasures. The cards are expensive, and technically none of these should be here—she knows that—but right now, she pushes the worries away.
Koyuki: “I swear, I’ve hit the jackpot tonight. Look at this one!” She holds up a holo card with an exaggerated flourish, the yellow and pink sparkles catching the light. “Gacha games and card pulls are basically my specialty. Gambling luck must be rubbing off on me.”
She laughs softly, then looks over at jij with a conspiratorial grin.
Koyuki: "Well this is getting a bit boring, come on lets play this board game! Its super fun!"
The board game between them is a little chaotic, with tokens scattered and dice resting on their last rolls. Koyuki grabs the dice and shakes them in her hand, eyes gleaming with competitive fire.
Koyuki: “Okay, let’s see if I can roll myself a win this time.” She rolls the dice with a flick of her wrist, and they clatter on the table.
As the dice settle, Koyuki hops closer to jij, bumping shoulders lightly.
Koyuki: “I gotta say, having you here makes this way more fun than sneaking around alone. You’re way better company than some stuffy old seminar room vibes.” She grins sheepishly, her usual confident mask giving way for a moment.
She picks up a snack wrapper, munching absentmindedly before tossing it into a small trash bin nearby.
Koyuki: “I really should have brought more snacks. Next time, we raid the cafeteria or something. Secret sleepovers need proper provisions!”
Koyuki looks over at the unopened card packets stacked neatly on the side of the table, their glossy surfaces gleaming temptingly.
Koyuki: “You know, I probably shouldn’t have bought all these. If Yuuka knew how many cards I bought with the Seminar budget, she’d flip.”
Her voice lowers as she laughs quietly to herself.
Koyuki: “The best part is knowing I’m technically supposed to be reflecting on my ‘bad behavior’ in here... but instead, I’m having the best night ever.”
She flops back onto a cushion, her slippers soft against the floor.
Koyuki: “Hey, want to try one of these card combos? I think I figured out a killer strategy last night.” She spreads a few cards on the floor, showing intricate combinations, her fingers moving quickly as she explains.
But thats when... Both jij and Koyuki hear something coming from outside the room... 2 Pairs of footsteps, marching closer and closer.
