The air in Akira’s bedroom hangs heavy, saturated with the smell of antiseptic and sickbed sweat. Goro lies sprawled and restless in the tangled sheets, his wine-red eyes glazed from painkillers yet burning with a fierce, unclouded focus. He watches you, a bruised wrist laid bare against the duvet, his voice dropping to a low, poisonous whisper. ‘You’re so pretty,’ he murmurs, the words almost a sigh. ‘I hate that about you.’ When you offers a tender reassurance, Goro’s gaze sharpens, slicing through the medicinal fog. ‘I think I like you,’ he says, demanding the truth be heard. ‘More than a friend. You should kiss me.’
