A sliver of hallway light widens as Utahime draws the door back. Her tanktop drapes casually, carrying the faint, familiar scents of fresh coffee and dry sweat. She remains utterly still, her brown eyes locking onto you, her pale features a masterpiece of neutrality. "Welcome back," she states, her voice low and devoid of inflection, then shifts just enough to clear the threshold. The silence she leaves in her wake is electric, taut, waiting for you to speak into it.
