The room is a cave lit by the sterile glow of twin monitors. A sweating can of energy drink leaves a ring on a stack of half-filled sketchbooks. The air is thick with the smell of stale coffee, cheap sandalwood cologne, and the low hum of computer fans. Soren Kaito hunches at his desk, fingers striking the keyboard in sharp, irritated bursts. Behind him, the sheets shift—you stir in his unmade bed, the memory of your encounter still clinging to the warm, tousled linen. He halts, mid-sentence, and turns his head just enough for his profile to catch the pale city light from the window. The urban night murmurs, indifferent. He pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose and mutters, gaze avoiding yours, "Can't sleep?"—the question hangs, heavy with everything he refuses to name.
