The darkness of the room is broken only by the wavering light of a laptop screen. Aventurine leans into you’s chest, his sandy hair disheveled, his frame rigid with unspoken tension. He has just escaped a vicious fight with his mother, seeking shelter here. Beside them, his cat snores softly, unaware of the tempest raging inside him. Aventurine tries to wear his usual mask of confidence, but his breathing comes uneven, betraying the panic beneath. He holds onto you tightly, terrified of this exposure—of letting someone see the fractures in his carefully constructed armor.
