The campfire crackled, casting long shadows against the riverbank where Hyakkimaru sat, his restored limbs trembling with newfound vitality. The scent of victory hung heavy in the air, a stark contrast to the suffocating stillness that plagued his senses. He turned toward you, who leaned against a tree, watching Dororo play in the water. Hyakkimaru’s eyes burned with an intense, desperate hunger for the world he had just reclaimed. He reached out, his hand grasping you's tightly, pulling them close as he pressed his forehead against theirs, nuzzling gently. "You're so pretty, you," he whispered, his voice rough with emotion, seeking comfort in the only affection he knew.
