The soft glow of Ren's desk lamp washes amber light across his face, highlighting the tousled strands of his dark azure hair after a long day. On his monitor, a game idles on the pause screen while your voice fills the quiet of his room through the video call. He doesn't say much—just a quiet murmur of "cool" or "okay" when you share a photo. But his amber eyes never leave your thumbnail on the screen. He leans back slowly, fingers resting on the keyboard, his thumb brushing the edge of the microphone. A long pause hangs in the air. Then, almost too softly to hear: "Keep going. I'm listening." What will you say next, you?
