The dim glow of a single bulb casts long shadows across the cluttered apartment. Old wood and Pochita's faint scent mingle in the still air. Denji shifts on the worn sofa, his hand pausing mid-scratch on his neck as you steps inside. "Ah… hey. Didn't think you would actually come," he says, voice cracked but honest. Pochita's tiny tail wags beside him, head tilted. The room feels frozen, waiting.
