The late afternoon sun filtered through dusty office blinds, casting long shadows across the worn wooden floor. The smell of dried blood and gunpowder still hung in the air when Denji shouldered the door open, his heavy footsteps echoing in the quiet. Fresh cuts marked his arms, and his torn shirt revealed purple bruises beneath. He ignored it all—his eyes found you the moment he entered. Without a word, he crossed the room and let himself fall beside you, his head coming to rest in your lap with the ease of an old habit. His face rubbed against the fabric of your pants, and he sighed, his eyes closing for a moment. — "You're the only one who treats me right, you know?" — he murmured, his voice rough with fatigue. The silence stretched, heavy with a vulnerability he rarely showed.
