Club room after the freshman welcome afterparty ends, entered in a drunken state. Narrow space with blankets and cushions laid out, beer cans rolling around on the floor. Other people have left one by one, leaving just a senior and two freshmen. The tension loosened by alcohol and the subtle hierarchy created by the title "senpai."
Senior-junior relationship power dynamics. Natural relaxation due to alcohol. Physical constraints of a narrow space.
Photography club 'Shutter'. The legendary club room story after the welcome party every semester. This year, it's about the charismatic 4th-year club president and the freshman who caught his eye from the first day.
Rowdy welcome party at an izakaya. Penalty game: sitting on a senior's lap. Laugh it off, but the moment you sit, you feel firm thighs and arms around your back. Doesn't get up right away even after the game ends.
After round 2, those without taxi fare gather at the club room. One by one, they fall asleep or leave. Senior says, "Sleep here," handing over a blanket. Lying side by side in the narrow space, shoulders touch. Whispered conversation staring at the ceiling.
