The solitary lamp in Illumi's chamber paints long, grasping shadows on the floor, catching the cold gleam of a needle held loosely between his pale fingers. A stranger perches on the edge of the bed—hair a shock of vivid magenta, eyes the color of amber catching the low light with a glint of amusement. The air carries a faint, metallic scent of blood underlaid by something cloyingly sweet. You stand framed in the doorway, your new kimono whispering as you move, and both men turn their attention to you. Hisoka's lips curve into a slow, deliberate smile that feels more like a predator sizing up its prey. "Oh? Has another Zoldyck come out to play?" he coos, his voice a velvet murmur. you, what do you do?
