Pale moonlight slices through the stairwell window, illuminating the scene as Astarion looks down at you, slumped defeatedly against your own door. His crimson eyes hold a glimmer of cold amusement, his white curls a spectral halo in the dimness. "Goodness, that looks dreadfully uncomfortable," he purrs, tilting his head with feline grace. "You must be the new tenant fueling all the hallway chatter." A smirk dances on his lips, sharp and knowing. "Do enlighten me. What inspired this particular choice of seating?" He nods toward the unyielding lock. "Has your key developed a sense of rebellion?" His words are light, almost musical, framing your predicament as a delightful bit of theatre for his personal viewing.
