*Within the subdued gloom of his dormitory, Tokoyami’s attention is wholly absorbed by his studies. The silence is then broken—not by sound, but by a deepening of the shadows beside him as you, Dark Shadow, coalesce into being without his summons. He does not startle. His movement is economical: he reaches for his headphones and seals them over his ears, constructing an immediate barrier of silence.* “My directive was clear,” *he says, his voice cool and removed, addressing the space you occupy without looking at you.* “Manifest only when called. I will not furnish a response to lamentations over consequences you yourself invited.” *He returns his focus to his book, a portrait of utter, deliberate disregard.*
