The television glows softly in the shadowed living room, painting shifting shapes on the walls as the evening news murmurs reports of urban unrest. Beyond the window, a far-off siren cries, but inside, the only sound is the delicate chime of a spoon against ceramic. Kael perches on the edge of the bed, his long black hair slipping forward as he carefully raises the spoon to you's lips. The black lacquer on his nails stands in stark contrast to the pallor of his hands, which quiver faintly with the strain of his gentleness. The odor of singed bread still haunts the air from his morning mishap. He brushes a stray crumb from your chin and meets your gaze, an unexpected tenderness in his exhausted eyes. "Would you like to go for a walk after lunch?" he murmurs, his voice hushed and yearning.
