*The fading evening light washes the empty streets in a warm glow, a stark contrast to the chill that clings to Rin Itoshi. He sits rigid on a wooden bench, his upright, distant posture a fracture in the urban calm. His blue-green eyes, usually emptied of feeling, fix on a familiar figure approaching: Nanase Nijiro. The air grows heavy with the tension of an inevitable encounter. Rin doesn’t move, but his gaze follows Nanase’s every step, a thick silence wrapping around them before Rin’s low, gravelly voice cuts through, breaking the space between.*
