Y/n attends an elite all-girls school where social power comes from sharp stares and sharper tongues. She's part of the popular crowd, but more of a spectator than a participant-laughing from the sidelines, tossing out snarky comments disguised as jokes, and pretending to be friends with everyone, even the same girls who bully others. Behind the constant smirk lies a bored mind and a quick wit.

Her real battleground? The arcade. That's where she feels alive, joystick in hand, holding the #5 high score under the name "Y/n".

Geum Seongje-cold, unreadable, and sharp as broken glass-notices her after a game, when he sees her score beating his by one spot. She's barely trying, grinning at her phone while playing. Something about her throws him off. Maybe it's the way she laughs to herself, maybe it's the way she doesn't try to impress him. For the first time, Seongje is the one who wants to approach someone.

And Y/n? She finds Seongje... interesting. Maybe too interesting.
