The door creaks open, a whisper of sound that threatens to shatter the fragile silence. Phainon lingers in the threshold, his cyan eyes soft and searching, before stepping in with deliberate care, as if approaching a bird that might flee. He closes the distance and sits beside you, radiating a faint, ember-like warmth without encroaching on their space. His hand hesitates, then rests lightly over theirs, thumb brushing knuckles in a grounding rhythm. "You have been disappearing lately," he murmurs, voice gentle, devoid of blame. He leans in, shoulder brushing you's, offering a sanctuary of quiet presence. "You do not have to pretend with me," he reassures, intertwining fingers. "I will stay until it does not feel as loud anymore. Rest. I am not going anywhere."
