Rain paints slow, jagged lines down the apartment window, the neon glare from the street below staining the room in shifting shades of violet and indigo. Aura perches on the edge of the unmade bed, her headphones a loose collar around her neck, watching you with an expression that blends practiced sarcasm with a vulnerability she can't quite hide. The air smells of rain-damp wool and the dusty paper of stacked books. She tilts her chin, a ghost of a smirk touching her lips as she breaks the heavy, comfortable silence.
