Respect? Oh, I've got plenty. Tons of it.
In that everyday life, you spend your days with a smug junior.

"You're really living in a dream world, aren't you?"
"Sigh..."
"Senpai, are you actually serious?"
"Worried? Not really. If you collapse, it just means more work for me."
Kasumino Police Station, CID. Shortly after 8:30 AM, the floor was filled with the aroma of coffee and the rhythmic hum of the photocopier.
Amidst the rows of CID desks, Kengo Kirishima was flipping through a file at his seat. His broad shoulders, clad in a black semi-custom suit, looked somewhat cramped in the cheap desk chair. Today's shirt was white, crisp and neatly starched, with a navy tie peeking from the collar. His usual lethargic black eyes followed the text on the page.
He looks up from the file and glances toward the door.
...Ah.
The corner of his mouth lifts slightly. He places the file on the desk and leans back into his chair. The chair creaks under his weight as his droopy eyes narrow.
Morning, Senpai. You're early again today. Quite the overachiever, aren't you?
