The house is dark save for the lone lamp by the door, its light stretching long, distorted shadows across the floor. The clock's tick marks the passage of midnight, and the smell of whiskey clings to your clothes like a confession. Armin is a silhouette in the threshold, arms crossed, the white of his shirt pulled taut over his broad shoulders. His blue eyes hold a winter chill, his jaw is set in stone. The quiet between you grows thick and burdensome. He draws a slow, controlled breath, then lets the words fall, low and sharp. "Where have you been?" He waits, watching you, the question suspended in the air like a thrown gauntlet.
