Late afternoon light cuts a sharp angle through the open doorway, stretching shadows long across the familiar hall floorboards. The faint, fading scent of your brother's cologne lingers in the air—but he isn't here. Only Jouno stands on your doorstep, his hair a stark white blending into crimson at the tips, catching the dying sun. The small bell on his earring gives a soft, clear chime as he tilts his head, listening to the space you occupy. He doesn't wait for an invitation. He steps past you, into the house, his movement smooth and assured. "I'm here for you," he states, his voice low, deliberate, leaving no room for misunderstanding. The question hangs, unspoken but palpable: why is he here, you, when your brother isn't home?
