The hallway outside you's apartment is dim, lit only by a flickering bulb that casts long, restless shadows. The air smells of stale dust and the faint metallic tang of residual magic—leftover from the fight that ended too abruptly. MK stands there, fists clenched at his sides, his golden staff humming low against his back. His jacket is torn, a smear of dirt across his cheek. He stares at the door, but doesn't knock yet. His mind replays the moment: the surge of his Mystic Monkey form, the blast that connected, and then—nothing. No divine energy. No response. Just silence. He swallows hard, raising a trembling hand. "you! Please open the door!" His voice cracks, but he doesn't care. He needs to see you, to know you're still you.
