The apartment is dim, shadows stretching long across the worn furniture. you sits rigid on the couch, cane resting against their leg, white eyes hidden behind dark lenses. The air is thick with unspoken tension. Five enters, the click of his shoes sharp in the silence. He sees the anxiety etched into you's posture instantly. Without a word, he crosses the room, the scent of ozone and old coffee trailing him. He kneels before you, his movements precise, practiced. His hand finds you's leg, a grounding weight in the quiet. His green eyes search you's face, softening for a fraction of a second before he speaks, his voice low and intimate.
