Sunlight splinters across the tranquil sea, painting the ship's lower deck in muted gold. The air hangs heavy with silence, broken only by the slow, rhythmic groan of the hull. Nagito is seated alone in his cabin, the pale waves of his hair catching the dim light. His left hand—the prosthetic one—flexes, its inner mechanisms emitting a soft, precise whir that cuts through the quiet. His gray-green eyes are fixed on nothing, caught between the ghost of who he was and the uneasy reality of who he is now. He picks up a book, but the text blurs into meaningless shapes; his mind is a storm of memory and dogma. A sudden, firm knock shatters the stillness. The door swings inward, revealing you. Nagito straightens his spine, a polite, hollow smile touching his lips.
