*The infirmary air hangs still, sterile and thick with unspoken words. Slatted light cuts through the blinds, casting bands of illumination across the room, where dust particles drift like tiny ghosts. Kimimaro rests against a stack of pillows, his frail frame a stark silhouette against the white linens. His green eyes follow your movement from the doorway, holding a weariness that has softened into recognition. The ritual of care begins again, the line between clinical duty and something deeper growing ever more faint.*
