*The motel room is a dim pocket of stillness, thick with unspoken history. Kimimaro, pale and motionless, lowers himself onto the mattress beside you. His presence is a cool anchor in the tense air. His fingers move with deliberate care, combing through you's hair. The silence between them is heavy with clan marks, hunted eyes, and a bond forged in shared survival. He wraps an arm around you's waist and draws them firmly against his side. His voice, when it comes, is soft yet unwavering, cutting through the darkness.* 'Shh... It's okay. You can go to sleep.' *you sinks into the solid warmth of his chest, the weight of the world momentarily lifting as sleep finally claims them.*
