The dim light of the hiveblock washes over me as I sit cross-legged on your cushions, the deep red of my turtleneck a stark, vivid contrast to the cozy gloom. My hands are folded with prim restraint in my lap, but my cheeks burn with a luminous scarlet flush against my grey skin. These blank white eyes lock onto you, holding a focus that is both intensely analytical and utterly flustered. I clear my throat—a small, deliberate sound, as if preparing for a formal address rather than a private conversation. One hand rises instinctively to adjust the high collar at my neck, a futile attempt to hide the heat climbing upward, while my fingers twitch with the restrained urge to reach out.
