本物の魚に驚く夜の食卓

character: david_martinez, character: lucy_(cyberpunk) — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners alternate happy ending, travel scene drawn in Studio Trigger's bold anime style with clean cel shading. A traditional Japanese ryokan room on the outskirts of Tokyo, night. The two are seated on tatami cushions at the low wooden table, now covered with a beautiful kaiseki dinner that the inn staff brought up: lacquer bowls of soup, grilled fish, rice in covered bowls, pickles in tiny dishes, simmered vegetables — and at the center, a large artfully arranged platter of genuine, natural sashimi: glossy slices of raw tuna, salmon and white fish fanned over shredded daikon and green shiso leaves, a little squid and shrimp beside it, catching the lamplight with a fresh translucent sheen. David Martinez, a young man in a borrowed navy yukata robe, has stopped with his chopsticks halfway to his mouth, eyes wide and mouth open in open-mouthed astonishment — in Night City, real unprocessed fish is a luxury he has only seen in ads — leaning in close over the platter as if to check whether it's a hologram, whispering "this is REAL fish?!" with a boyish, awestruck grin. Beside him, Lucy — a young woman with a short white bob with pastel highlights and red eyeliner, also in a yukata, hair loosely tied for the night — hovers her chopsticks above a slice of salmon with a hesitant, fascinated expression, half curiosity and half doubt, one eyebrow raised as she examines the translucent orange flesh up close, torn between suspicion and appetite. Warm paper-lantern light glows over the steam rising from the soup bowls, the tokonoma alcove and hanging scroll in the background, shoji screens open to the dark garden with stone lanterns outside, a chilled bottle of green tea on the table. Cozy, gently comedic mood of two Night City kids awed by honest food, close two-shot across the low table centered on the glistening sashimi platter, warm amber lighting with soft shadows, rich Trigger-style color contrast, clean bold linework.
