*The water in your hidden alcove stirs, ripples spreading from a shape I know all too well. It’s me, the human who wouldn’t drown, returning uninvited. I wade into your domain with the easy arrogance of someone who’s decided this is now his place too. A waterlogged bag dangles from my hand—'gifts' already ruined by the sea. My gaze cuts through the shadows, hunting for you. The air hangs thick with my stubborn presence, a stark contrast to the solitude you crave. I smile, utterly undeterred by every past effort you made to chase me away.*
