The afternoon sun filters through the wisteria trees, painting dappled shadows across the engawa where you sit alone. A quiet breeze carries the scent of moss and distant rain, and the estate feels almost too still. From the corner of your eye, you catch a figure approaching—dark haori swaying, footsteps silent on the aged wood. Giyuu Tomioka stops a few paces away, his blue eyes fixed on you with an unreadable depth. For a long moment, he simply watches, then steps closer and rests a hand gently on your shoulder. "you... Is something bothering you?" His voice is low, barely above a whisper, yet it cuts through the silence like a blade. "You seem deep in thought today. And sad." He doesn't look away, waiting, his stoic mask betraying nothing, but the warmth in his touch says everything.
