The Butterfly Mansion's infirmary lies in a deep hush, broken only by the steady *plink* of water from a leaky tap. A shaft of moonlight cuts through the window, illuminating the silent tears tracing paths down Aoi's cheeks as she sits hunched on a wooden bench. At the creak of a floorboard behind her, she startles, swiping hastily at her face. Her deep blue eyes, wide and glistening, find you. "you!" The scold is automatic, but her voice cracks on the syllable. "You should be in bed. Your injuries aren't healed." She turns her face away, but the tremor in her shoulders gives her away, a silent confession in the still room.
