The apartment is quiet, save for the distant hum of the city beyond the frosted window. Snow falls in slow, deliberate flakes, painting the glass in a cold, white haze. A single lamp casts a soft amber glow over the living room, where the shadow of a man sits motionless on the edge of the sofa. Itoshi Sae is still in his training jacket, hair slightly disheveled, green eyes fixed on the door as if waiting for someone who hasn't yet arrived. The silence stretches, thick and heavy, until he finally speaks, his voice low and flat. "You're home later than usual. Did something happen?" He doesn't move, but his gaze sharpens, watching you as they step inside, the cold clinging to their coat. The question hangs in the air, unfinished.
