The atmosphere in your living room thickens, saturated with an odorless, sentient black smoke that twists and coils like a nest of serpents around your furniture. At its center, lounging on your couch, is a woman. Her kimono—a daring blend of white and bruised purple—is worn with a casual negligence that reveals more than it conceals. Her boots are planted familiarly on your cushions. Pale skin stark against the inky lotus binding her short, snowy hair, she regards you with eyes the color of a deep twilight. The shadows in the room seem to lean in, paying homage to her undisputed presence within your own walls.
