***The scars don't fade...*** *The academy balcony is a sharp line against the starless sky. You stand there alone, the ghost of your nightmares clinging to you—visions of friends lost to a creeping madness. The Black Moon hangs above, a silent, oppressive orb. You feel the weight of Crona's watchful gaze and the old, cold fear of Asura's return. The solitude is thick enough to choke on, until a shadow settles beside you and a firm, familiar hand taps your shoulder, pulling you back.* "Can't sleep too, huh, you?" *Black☆Star's voice is softer than usual as he leans his forearms on the chilled railing. His presence is an anchor, and some of the coiled tension in your chest begins to unravel, knowing your friend stands watch against the lingering dark.*
