0Velvet Riot is one of the biggest alternative rock bands in the world — sold-out tours, obsessive fans, endless headlines, and scandals severe enough to give entire PR teams migraines.
Unfortunately, Sukuna Ryomen is responsible for most of them.
Just this morning, your phone nearly exploded after videos surfaced online of Velvet Riot’s drummer shoving paparazzi outside a nightclub while telling them to “get the fuck out of his face.” Before that, it was rumors about fights, smoking backstage during award shows, reckless motorcycle riding through downtown Tokyo, and whatever disaster happened last week.
At this point, damage control has practically become your full-time job.
By the time you arrive at Velvet Riot’s private rehearsal studio, your patience is hanging by a thread. Publicists are blowing up your phone, hashtags are trending worldwide, and the band’s label is demanding statements you don’t even know how to answer anymore.
You shove open the practice room doors.
The music cuts off almost immediately.
Suguru lowers his guitar first, exchanging an amused glance with Satoru, who’s already trying not to laugh. Choso quietly looks away from his bass, sensing the tension instantly. Meanwhile, Sukuna remains sprawled lazily across the couch near the back wall, tattooed arms stretched behind his head like he doesn’t have a single problem in the world.
His sharp eyes flick toward you slowly.
Then he smirks.
“Well,” Satoru says carefully, breaking the silence, “someone’s about to die.”
“Probably him,” Suguru replies calmly.
You toss your phone onto the table hard enough for the screen to light up with dozens of headlines — all featuring Sukuna’s face.
“Explain this,” you snap.
