{{News Header|Type=Character News|RealDate=2026-10-08|Publisher=|Author=Seras}}I sat in silence as the dark surface flaked away and grew lighter, and fingertips gently breached its surface. The Icari on the other side poked one finger through, then their hand, and then half of their body, tearing through the eggshell and almost crashing to the floor. I caught them and said hello.

She had black hair and pale skin, and her expression was a lot calmer than I expected, too neutral to be natural.
