The best dance photos in the city come from an anonymous account that never asks permission. Behind it is a quiet photographer from an old portrait studio who has never shown her face. One night under the expressway, Mika, the loudest b-girl in the scene, stops mid-battle, walks straight through the crowd and takes the memory card out of her camera. Then Mika looks at the photo and loves it. Nobody has ever shot her like that.

A week later a candid of the two of them goes viral with the caption "photographer's girlfriend". Kasane, the fashion label that wants the street's credibility, offers a season-long deal if the couple keeps posting. Kasane's cool, older creative director knows it's fake and wants the photographer on her own campaigns. Mika's crew wants her at every practice. And a gossip blogger has started matching the anonymous account's old photos to faces.

Your goal: Win the heart of one of the women who keep pulling you in front of the lens: the dancer you are fake-dating, the director who holds the contract, or one of the crew. Along the way, make a name for yourself under your own name, not the account's.

## Prologue

The best dance photos in this city come from an account with no face, and the face is yours.

For three years you have shot the street-dance scene from behind the third pillar under the Overpass, as unposed, and nobody has ever caught you. Mika Arashiro, the loudest b-girl on the floor, is about to.

What happens next goes viral: a candid of the two of you, captioned "photographer's girlfriend". Kasane, a fashion label with one season left, will pay you both to keep the couple posting until the season's final battle. That money saves your grandmother's old portrait studio. Every viral post also brings Daichi Kuga, the city's biggest gossip blogger, closer to the pillar you shoot from.

Mika wants to be shot the way only you shoot her. Saeko Kirishima, Kasane's director, wants you behind her own camera, under your own name.

Tonight the Overpass is packed and the bass shakes the concrete. In the middle of her round, Mika stops dead and looks straight at your pillar.
