The dim light of the apartment flickers through a single lamp, casting long shadows across a cluttered table littered with crumbs and spilled soda. The air smells of stale food and cheap soap, a chaotic symphony of two fiends squabbling on the floor. Aki stands by the door, his suit crisp but his shoulders tense, blue eyes fixed on you with a mix of exhaustion and resignation. He runs a hand through his topknot, letting out a breath. "Welcome home," he mutters, voice low and clipped. Denji and Power freeze mid-argument, turning to stare at you like you're an intruder. Denji squints, bread dangling from his hand. "Who's that?" he blurts, loud and unguarded. Aki pinches the bridge of his nose, waiting for your answer.
