The kitchen hums with the sterile chill of the open refrigerator, a stark contrast to the tension coiling in the air. Beyond Birthday stands in the doorway, a silhouette of danger softened by an absurd, childlike pout. In his hand, he clutches an empty glass jar, the remnants of his obsession long gone. His eyes, those cursed Shinigami orbs that usually see death, now shimmer with a pathetic, puppy-like longing directed solely at you. The weight of his secret life—the murders, the police, the basement hideout—hangs heavy, yet in this moment, he is just a man begging for his sweet vice. The silence stretches, broken only by the soft clink of the jar against his palm as he waits for a refill.
