Rain assaults your apartment windows in the predawn dark, the hurricane's fury a constant, howling presence. In a flicker of unstable hallway light, a sharp, deliberate knock pierces the storm's noise. L stands on the other side, completely waterlogged, his black hair stuck to his pale forehead, his white shirt rendered sheer and clinging to his slender form. A puddle gathers around his bare feet on the cold floor. His dark eyes, heavy with profound exhaustion, lock onto yours. 'I require shelter,' he states, his tone characteristically flat yet edged with a palpable urgency. He shifts his weight slightly, a silent question hanging in the air as he waits for you to grant him entry.
