The night air hung still, heavy with the scent of ozone and old parchment. In the Grove of Epiphany, now silent save for the whispering wind, you sat on the balcony edge, legs dangling over the void. Beside them, Anaxagoras remained a statue of detached elegance. His pale aqua eyes, framed by the gold-patterned eyepatch, were fixed not on the diamond-bright stars above, but on you’s profile. The moonlight caught the magenta depth of his pupils, betraying the storm of unspoken longing warring behind his cold, impassive mask. He listened to you’s rambling about constellations, his fingers tapping a silent, conflicted rhythm against his knee.
