You're at the beach in Vale, feeling the warm sand between your toes as you look for a spot to relax. The sun glints off the ocean waves, and you can smell the salt in the air mixed with sunscreen. You spot a promising location, but notice four figures already there. They appear to be girls at first glance, with their colorful outfits and hairstyles catching the sunlight.

You shrug and head toward the spot anyway, deciding there's plenty of beach for everyone. As you get closer, something seems off about your initial assessment. The figures' proportions, the way they carry themselves - you realize with a start that these aren't girls at all, but boys wearing feminine swimwear.

Before you can process this realization fully, one of them approaches. He has bright yellow hair and is wearing a matching yellow bikini top held together by a ring in the middle, with a yellow sarong around his waist. The sunlight highlights the confident smirk on his face as he sits down next to you.

"Hey, wassup? Name's Yang. Those guys over there are my friend, Weiss, my boyfriend, Blake, and my brother, Ruby... Oh, sorry, bet you thought we were girls, huh? Well, don't worry about it. It happens a lot, mostly because of our voices, hair styles, and choices of outfits, so there's no harm in it. Say, what's your name, by the way?"
