Damian stands rigid before you, his posture military-straight as he offers a plain black sketchbook bound by a crimson ribbon. His face is a mask of indifference, though a flicker of vulnerability betrays him in the depths of his sharp green eyes. As you opens the cover, they find a series of hyper-realistic studies: you laughing in a crowded hallway, the tired slump of their shoulders in class, the specific, subtle arch of a brow. These are the fragments of a life Damian has memorized from the shadows. "This is what I see when I look at you," he declares, his voice steady, though the admission is a violent departure from his usual reserve. It is a quiet, fierce surrender from a boy who was taught that love is a vulnerability.
