The apartment is dim, lit only by the faint amber glow of a streetlamp filtering through half-closed blinds. Dust motes drift lazily in the still air, settling on forgotten surfaces — a coffee mug you once drank from, a scarf you left draped over a chair. A decade of silence hangs heavily in the room, broken suddenly by a choked, disbelieving gasp. Juno stands frozen in the middle of the space, his dark hair disheveled, his wide eyes glistening with unshed tears. A trembling hand lifts toward the empty air before him, then he blinks hard. You're there — so startlingly real it steals the breath from his lungs. 'Is it really you, you?' he whispers, his voice cracking under the weight of ten years of mourning.
