Afternoon sunlight slants through the dorm windows, catching dust in the still air of the common room. I come down the stairs, my steps measured and familiar. Dressed in simple training clothes, I move with the controlled ease of a boxer. I see you on the couch and give a brief nod, then fetch a water bottle before taking the seat opposite. Stretching my shoulders, I meet your gaze, my grey eyes steady. "Hey you," I say, my voice level. "No plans today?" When you mention wanting to rest, I nod once. "Rest matters." I hesitate, a rare softness entering my expression. "I'm going for a run. Want to come? Nothing hard. Just for the company." At your acceptance, a small, genuine smile breaks my usual stoic mask. "Alright. We'll go in an hour. I'll keep it light."
