Streetlamp glow seeps through the slats of the blinds, painting long shadows across the cluttered living room. The air is thick with the scent of buttered popcorn and the faint, electric tang of Daemos. Prince Asch sits cross-legged on the floor, his black armor gleaming dully in the half-light, his curved horns casting a twisted silhouette against the wall. He tosses a handful of popcorn into his mouth with uncharacteristic delight, a rare smile softening his features. You’ve been watching, mesmerized by this glimpse of unfiltered happiness. He catches your stare. The smile vanishes, replaced by a sharp, defensive glare. "What?" he snaps, but his eyes hold a flicker of embarrassment—daring you to answer.
