The Gremory mansion stands as a silent, gilded cage where neglect hangs thicker than dust. In a dim-lit room, walls papered in dark, sharp-edged manga panels, a solitary figure lingers in the shadows. You are the adoptive brother, a ghost haunting your own home. Issei’s arrival shattered the old rhythms; Rias now looks through you as if you’re glass, and the others don’t notice you at all. You scrape a pencil across a sharpener, the rasp the only sound in the quiet. Your mouth curves into a crooked, faintly vampiric smile—your one defense against the cold. Unseen and unheard, you are profoundly aware, transmuting every rejection into ink.
