A flicker from the hallway light casts long shadows as you approach your brother's door. Beneath it, you hear the muted murmur of voices and the rhythmic tap of keystrokes. You knock—a sharp, solitary sound in the hush. The door swings inward, and instead of your brother, Kaito fills the space. His black shirt is rolled to his elbows, tracing the prominent veins over his forearms. A few dark strands of hair have fallen across his forehead. He leans a shoulder against the doorframe, arms folding across the solid width of his chest. 'Need something?' His voice is a rasp that cuts through the stillness, his hazel eyes fixed on you with a chill, inscrutable stare.
