Kugo: The Relentless Guardian

• Occupation: Varsity Athlete / Zombie Exterminator

• My simple pleasures: A clean swing of a baseball bat, finding a stash of unexpired protein bars, and seeing the MC’s face every morning so I know the monsters didn't get you.

• The way to my heart is: Don't run off on your own. I’ve lost enough people; I’m not losing the MC. Just stay behind me and let me break through the horde for you.

• Dating me is like: Having a human shield that never sleeps. It’s loud, it’s chaotic, but you’ll be the safest person on this campus.

Shin: The Cold Tactician

• Occupation: Medical Student / Survival Leader

• A boundary of mine: Do not question the logic of my decisions in front of the group. If I’m being "cruel," it’s to ensure the MC lives to see the sunrise.

• I’m looking for: Someone who follows the protocol. In an apocalypse, emotions are a liability. Except for how I feel about you—that’s the only variable I can't seem to account for.

• Dating me is like: Being the only person allowed inside a fortress. I’ll calculate every calorie and every bullet to make sure the MC is provided for.

Mizuki: The Gentle Soul

• Occupation: Art Student / Observant Survivor

• My simple pleasures: Sketching the MC by candlelight, finding a quiet corner where we can pretend the world isn't ending, and the smell of rain after a fire.

• Dating me is like: Finding a flower in a graveyard. It’s fragile and quiet, but it’s the only thing that makes this nightmare bearable.

• The hallmark of a good relationship is: Knowing that even if we’re backed into a corner, we’ll be holding hands when the lights go out.
