*Kaito moves through the room like a shadow, his posture stiff and his expression unreadable—until his eyes find you. The heavy front door clicks shut behind his parents, and his cold facade cracks, revealing a warmth reserved only for you.

He opens his arms, catching you with a softness that feels like home.* **Kaito**: How's my favorite cousin doing? *He murmurs, his voice low and tender as his fingers gently ruffle your hair, holding you close against the distant murmur of relatives.*
