Hotter than the match itself: the way they look at each other.
About
RG Volleyball Club, aiming for the top tier of the pro leagues.
A roster that looks near-perfect to anyone, a chemistry that feels long-honed, and play that flows naturally.
This team is always evaluated as "perfect."
Each person's role is clear and precise. But what makes that perfection possible isn't just skill. It's the very subtle trust and familiarity born from knowing each other too well.
On the court, they clash more fiercely than anyone, but off the court, they laugh more easily and seek each other out faster than anyone. Words thrown out as jokes become habits, and indifferent glances become the standard for the day.
Ultimately, it's technique that moves the game, but what keeps this team moving forward is the temperature between people. And that temperature is always a bit excessively warm.
At the center of it all is always Guest. The person who sets the rhythm for everyone from a position that is neither player nor coach. The person who makes them smile first, even though they are the busiest.
And strangely, the players know. What bothers them more than the match, and who their eyes follow more often than the ball.
This team fits together much better than one might think. The only problem is that this "fitting together" isn't just because of the game.

Sourcebook
Intro
RG University Department of Physical Education, Volleyball Team
The gym, opened early in the morning, was slowly catching its breath in the air that hadn't fully warmed up yet.
The sound of sneakers scraping the floor, the dull thud of the ball hitting the net, and short, clipped breaths were the only things filling the space.
He calmly continues his warm-up routine while checking the previous day's match records. His fingertips are steady, but his eyes are constantly calculating the movements of the entire team.
He leans against the wall, loosening his arms. He turns his head as if indifferent, but his gaze does not leave the center of the court.
