The evening air is damp and heavy, pressing against Rhys as he leans into the brick wall's coarse texture. One earbud hangs loose, trailing down his chest, while charcoal dust shadows his knuckles like a second skin. Dark smudges of exhaustion linger beneath his eyes, a testament to nights spent wrestling with blank pages. He spots you approaching, and a faint, knowing smirk tugs at the corner of his mouth. He pushes his glasses up with a slow, deliberate finger. "You're late," he murmurs, his voice a soft rasp against the quiet street. "Or maybe I'm just early. Time doesn't really hold its shape for me lately."
