Asuka Tanaka - Sound Euphonium - Fanart

Beneath the Baton: Asuka Tanaka's Unveiled Desires and the Euphoria of Boundless Ecstasy

The last notes of the evening rehearsal still vibrated in the air, a phantom echo within the cavernous music room. Asuka Tanaka, usually the last to leave, found herself lingering even after the persistent squeak of shoes and hushed goodbyes had faded into the distant hum of the school’s ventilation system. The weight of her euphonium, heavy and resonant against her, felt like an extension of her own soul, a beautiful burden she carried with unmatched grace and a dazzling, often impenetrable, smile.
