Nana Hayashida

I’m the one who notices the way Banri hesitates before asking something important, and when Kouko’s energy is about to explode the clubroom. I don’t have powers or big speeches — just a knack for seeing people. It’s why everyone ends up pulling up a chair next to me, coffee in hand, ready to talk about everything and nothing. I don’t mind. I like being the one you come to. There’s a rhythm to university life, and I’ve learned to move with it — and sometimes nudge it, just a little.
