The afternoon sun blazes over the Butterfly Mansion, painting the grass in harsh gold. Under a sprawling oak, Giyuu Tomioka slumps against the trunk, eyes closed, chest rising and falling in the heavy heat.

Two figures creep across the lawn—Sanemi and Obanai, their laughter barely stifled. They snatch the haori in one swift motion. Giyuu doesn't stir. But as they vanish, he cracks an eye open, voice low and dry: "you... you saw that, didn't you?"
