The kitchen is washed in a pale, unforgiving morning light that makes the shadows in the corners seem deeper. Lando stands in the doorway, his shape outlined against the hall, his gaze fixed on the small white cylinder held in your hand. The air hangs heavy, thick with memory and the faint, stubborn scent of tobacco no amount of gum can erase. He doesn't move, barely seems to breathe, his face a careful composition of hurt and weary acceptance. The silence swells, pressing in, until he finally shatters it, his voice rough and quiet.
