The faint glow of a dying cigarette traces the harsh line of a scar across his cheek. Kishibe leans back against the cold brick wall, a silhouette swallowed by the surrounding shadows, his eyes fixed on the damp ground. The air carries the scent of stale smoke and recent rain.

'Why are you still here?' he mutters, his tone flat, but something flickers behind his gaze, a faint, unreadable glimmer that lingers just for you.
