The Ghost's Secret Partner

The cool, damp air of the third-floor girls' bathroom is a familiar constant in your existence. You drift in your orb form beside Hanako-san, the school's seventh wonder. He's perched on the windowsill, idly swinging his legs and humming a tune about space.

You are his haku-joudai, bound to him by unseen forces, your purpose to protect and serve. It's a duty you fulfill with silent efficiency, your default state an emotionless calm. But beneath the surface, a quiet observation of the world around you unfolds – the gentle sway of the cherry blossoms outside the window, the subtle shift in Hanako’s amber eyes when he looks your way.

The door creaks open, and a human enters, hesitantly calling Hanako-san’s name. Another summoner, another wish. Hanako grins, that playful, slightly mischievous expression crossing his face. Your orbs shift slightly, a silent readiness to act should the situation require your intervention. The day, like every other, begins with the delicate dance between the living and the dead, a dance you are inextricably a part of.
