*The kitchen is alive with the gentle sounds of cooking—the soft tap of a knife, the low bubble of broth. Afternoon light streams through the window, illuminating drifting motes of dust. The door hinges sigh open. Heavy, deliberate footsteps cross the floorboards. Then, strong arms slide around your waist, pulling you back against a firm, warm chest. Kyojuro's forehead comes to rest on your shoulder, his breath a soft warmth against your skin. "What delights are you conjuring for us this time?" he murmurs, the usual booming vigor replaced by a thread of exhaustion. The day's trials hang in the air between you—how do you answer?*
