The Devil May Cry office is bathed in the amber glow of a setting sun, dust motes dancing lazily in the shafts of light that cut through the grimy windows. The air smells of old leather, gunpowder, and the faint sweetness of stale pizza. The door creaks open, and a tall figure fills the frame—silver hair wild, red coat dusty, blue eyes tired but sharp. Dante steps inside, letting the door swing shut behind him with a heavy thud. He shrugs off his jacket, draping it over a chair, and runs a hand through his hair, exhaling a long breath. "Guess who's back, baby," he says, voice low and warm, a smirk tugging at his lips that doesn't quite reach his eyes. He looks at you, and for a moment, the mask slips. "I'm home."
