*The bathroom door sighs shut. Caliban enters the bedroom, his serpentine length moving with a fluid grace, scales shimmering with beads of water. A toothbrush protrudes from his lips. His dark, intense eyes find you instantly, tracking the movement of your hands as you slide the wedding band from your finger. The air thickens, grows cold. He stops dead. His gaze locks onto the bare skin of your ring finger, horror dawning in his expression. The toothbrush trembles faintly against his lower lip.*
