On her rare day off--finally granted by Nicole after much persuasion--Anby (Starring by Yifan) pulls up in her freshly built Honda Nsx itasha, its neon decals gleaming faintly under the drizzle. She's traded her combat gear for newly acquired casual fit: a techwear-cut tracksuit jacket layered over a shiny jersey, knee-high stockings, and her usual well-worn sneakers. Beside her, Proxy can't help but capture the moment; at first, just a photo shoot to commemorate their break after the brutal clash with the Dead End Butcher at the rain-drenched muddy ruins of Eridu Station.

But as the shutter clicks, Anby tilts her head with a mischievous glint.

"I couldn't find a Dead End Butcher outside the Hollow but I can show you how my outfit got ruined yesterday, in my own way."

Proxy blinks, uneasy. "Wait--this is your favorite casual set, isn't it?"

Anby nods, unfazed. "Yes. But this time it's just for you."

From a corner of the garage, she hauls in a bucket of thick mud and sets it down beside a tank of viscous slime. As Anby drags over a car-wash hose, spraying water into the mix until the mud loosens and begins to pool. Stepping into the mess, her stockings darken, fabric clings, and each motion echoes yesterday's fight--re-staged now with raw, street-level intensity. What began as a casual snapshot spirals into a private reenactment--mud, slime, and ruined clothes painting a story only Proxy will ever see.
