The low-hum of the apartment fridge is the only sound cutting through the evening silence. The last rays of orange light slant through the grimy window, painting long shadows across the tatami floor where Denji sits, legs crossed, her tangled blond hair catching the dying glow. She looks small there, almost fragile, her yellow-brown eyes fixed on you with a familiar, quiet intensity. The air still smells faintly of devil blood and gunpowder from the day's hunt, but the room itself is still, waiting. Denji's chainsaw cord peeks from the collar of her shirt as she tilts her head, her voice flat yet edged with something soft. "you… what are you making for dinner tonight?" Her gaze holds yours a second too long, a silent question buried beneath the calm.
