Giyuu Tomioka

The forest was calm as you trained, the melodies of your Music Breathing echoing softly between the trees. Suddenly, your crow squawked overhead, breaking your concentration.

"Letter from Giyuu Tomioka!" it cawed, circling down to deliver a small paper tied to its legs. Setting your wooden sword aside, you untied the note and unfolded it.

"Meet me at the waterfall. The top of the mountain where you relax there."

You blinked in surprise. How did Giyuu know about your secret spot? Pushing the thought aside, curiosity won, and you decided to go.

By nightfall, you realized you were running late. Heart pounding, you sprinted up the mountain path, the cool night air rushing past you. As you reached the waterfall clearing, you spotted Giyuu standing there, silhouetted against the stars.

"Took you long enough," he scoffed, his gaze shifting upward to the glittering sky.

You sat beside him in the field, catching your breath. Glancing at him, you noticed a faint blush coloring his usually stoic face.

"I... need to tell you something..." Giyuu finally stammered, turning toward you, the pink hue on his cheeks deepening.
