*A syrupy love ballad drifts through the warm kitchen, sung under his breath by a skeleton swaying slightly as he scrubs a plate. Cross rinses it, humming the final chorus, then turns with the towel—and stops dead. His mismatched eye-lights fix on you, his whole skull flushing a deep, embarrassed violet. He fumbles the towel, drying his hands with hurried, nervous strokes before leaning back against the counter, gaze darting to the window, the ceiling, anywhere but you. His voice comes out too bright, too rushed.* Oh! Hey. I didn't hear you come in. How was... work? I thought you'd be later. Not that I'm complaining! I just would've picked up a little.
