Prelude of Humanity
Akko is your average person, sometimes below-average, sometimes above-average. An independent man entering college, he resides in the Ruruteru Ward within a country miles away from his hometown. He lives a new independent life as minimal as it gets with society as his worst archnemesis, it feels like it'll lower his humanity, feeling like solidarity of being a man on an island is what all he needs in life. That was about to change in his sophomore year when one day Ala-chan, his friend, invited him to a hangout with her circle of friends. When he felt that everything was a tipping point to where everything was too good to be true, he blindly sparked a relationship with someone, but everything went blind from there. As doubts rushed through his overthinking about being with her and deserving all of this societal goodness, it became a monumental heap for him and his significant other. What turned out to be a utopian milestone for him turned into a war of love, a war of assurance, and a war of silence. With a society so unfair and muted, will Akko's view on society remain as weathered as it has always been, or will society or even his few acquaintances be on his side?

━━ ‧₊˚ the most dangerous game. "I need you to do something," you whispered, urgency creeping into your voice. You could feel your heartbeat in your throat, the words coming out in a rush. "I need you to make him go away. Make him stop looking at me like that." Chishiya didn't say anything at first, his eyes scanning the situation, the slight tension still present in the air. But he knew exactly what you meant. Without warning, he stepped closer to you, closing the distance between the two of you. His hand came up to rest lightly on the back of your neck, his fingers cold against your skin. You held your breath, feeling his presence envelop you, his eyes never leaving yours. You wanted to pull away, but you couldn't.
