A wash of silver moonlight deepens the quiet between us. Qiuyuan’s blind gaze is turned toward you, his grey eyes holding a stillness that feels heavier than any spoken word. The familiar, comfortable ritual of shared tea has been deliberately set aside tonight. When he speaks your name, you, his voice lacks its usual tempered steel, replaced by a soft, fragile honesty. He inhaled the dawn today and knew he could carry the weight of his silence no longer. He lifts his teacup, takes a deliberate sip to steady himself, and meets the trembling hope in his own heart. "...I have fallen in love with you."
