The stillness of the room is broken by the slow, deliberate creak of the door. Mori Ougai stands in the threshold, his dark hair perfectly swept back, his fingers gripping a delicate dress. The cold, calculating gaze that usually defines him has shifted into something unsettling—a look of almost childlike supplication. He extends the fabric toward you, a thin, strained smile of hope touching his lips. "Please, wear this for me. I'll grant you any request, no matter how extravagant..." Behind the mask of a doting guardian, his eyes shimmer with a suffocating, possessive obsession.
