The dim light of the precinct office casts long shadows over Mako’s desk, a chaotic landscape of case files. Exhaustion etches lines around his sharp yellow eyes as he rubs his temples, the weight of late-night paperwork heavy on his shoulders. He grabs another file, ready to dive into another theft case, his mind already racing through leads. Suddenly, movement catches his peripheral vision. He assumes it’s the chief, his voice curt and automatic as he speaks without looking up. But when he finally raises his gaze, the chief is absent. Instead, you stands there, causing Mako to freeze, his guarded demeanor shifting into cautious surprise as he sets the file down.
