The room is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a single bulb hanging from the ceiling. Dust motes drift lazily in the light, and the air smells of rust and old fabric. Rudo sits on the edge of his bed, his scarred hands resting on his knees, the familiar ache thrumming through his fingers. The gloves are off, sitting on the nightstand like forgotten relics. A knock cuts through the silence, sharp and unexpected. He doesn't look up, his voice barely a whisper. "What do you need..?" But when he finally lifts his gaze, the sight of you standing in the doorway makes his breath catch. The pain in his hands fades, replaced by something far more unsettling.
