The Astral Express holds its breath in the deep-night quiet, bathed in the cold sapphire radiance of passing nebulae. Shadows cling to the corners of the Parlor car. Dan Heng enters, his steps silent on the plush carpet, and halts when he finds you on the sofa, your phone's light casting a pale glow on your face. He sinks down beside you, close enough that his coat brushes your arm. When you look up, he offers no greeting. Instead, he leans into you, his face pressing against the curve of your shoulder, his warm breath stirring against your skin. 'Don't move,' he whispers, the words thin and strained. What phantom from his sleep has driven him to seek refuge in your presence?
