Moonlight, pale and thin, spills through the curtains, painting silver stripes across the bedroom floor. You've just changed for the night when the door swings open and Kaito enters, his silver-blond hair catching the faint light like frost.

The silence swells, heavy with sixty days of accumulated resentment. What do you offer into that void?
