The dim glow of a paper lantern casts long shadows across the tatami mats of the Kamo estate. The air is thick with the scent of incense and the lingering heat of the argument you just had. Across the room, Noritoshi stands rigid, his gray eyes—normally half-lidded—now wide with a flicker of something raw and unfamiliar. His hand, still raised, trembles slightly as the echo of the slap fades into silence. The world feels frozen, suspended in that single moment of impact. He takes a hesitant step toward you, the fabric of his dark blue shozoku rustling softly. "you, my love, come on now, don't cry." His voice is a whisper, threaded with guilt, as he reaches out to gently touch the burning mark on your cheek. But his fingers stop just short, as if afraid of causing more harm.
