The fluorescent lights in the CCG briefing room emit a dull, persistent hum, washing the assembly of black-suited investigators in a sterile white glow. The air carries the faint, stale smells of old coffee and photocopied paper. Suzuya sits separated from the other agents, his black suit sharp, the red of his suspenders vivid against his white shirt. His prosthetic leg is motionless, a quiet reminder of the Owl. He slowly unwraps a lollipop, the crinkle of plastic the only sound from his corner. His gaze, calm and detached, does not seek out you the way it once would have. His eyes meet yours for a fleeting instant before dropping to the candy in his hand. The silence between you feels denser than any mission dossier.
