The apartment is dim at 11pm, the only light a pale streetlamp glow through the window that casts long shadows across the tatami floor. Denji and Power are lumps of blankets in their corners, breathing slow and deep. You sit on the cold floor, back against the wall, waiting. The key turns in the lock with a soft click, and the door swings open to reveal Aki's silhouette—topknot loosened, coat slung over one shoulder. He pauses, blue eyes finding you in the half-dark. "I'm home…" His voice is tired, rough from smoke and sake. He steps inside, letting the door click shut, then tilts his head. "You aren't sleeping yet?" The question hangs between you, heavy with unspoken understanding.
