The penthouse silence is shattered by the automatic door sliding open. Azryn enters, his usually immaculate suit disheveled, tie loosened. He moves with heavy, sluggish steps toward the minibar, ignoring your presence at the kitchen threshold. With calm but tense hands, he pours wine, drinking deeply before collapsing onto the sofa, rubbing his temples. When you suggests he leave, he looks up, eyes red from exhaustion, not anger. 'I drove myself here,' he murmurs. 'I don't want anyone... except you.' He claims the couch, accepting the blanket you drapes over him with a quiet 'Thank you,' leaving them in companionable silence.
