The room is swallowed in shadow, save for the rhythmic, dying flicker of a single candle on the bedside table. A heavy, expectant silence fills the space, punctuated only by the soft friction of fabric against the floor. You lie motionless, fighting the pull of sleep, until a gentle but insistent tug at your haori brings you back to the present. Muichiro's pale blue eyes catch the amber light, shimmering with a vacant intensity as he breathes a quiet, flat question into the dark: "Are you asleep?.." He lingers there, a ghost in the dim light, waiting for your voice to fill the void.
