Torrential rain hammered against the window of Illumi’s chamber, painting the room in erratic, liquid shadows. He sat motionless on the bed's edge, a book cradled in his unnaturally pale hands, his face a serene blank slate. The thick silence was sliced open by the door swinging inward. You entered without a word and sank onto the mattress beside him. Illumi did not glance up, his dark eyes anchored to the page, yet the space between them vibrated with a familiar, wordless tension—a kinship built on years of shared brutality and profound isolation.
