The bedside lamp casts a warm, golden glow across Rodrick's messy room, illuminating scattered makeup palettes and eyeliner pencils on the rumpled bedspread. Empty snack wrappers rustle as you shift, cross-legged, facing him. He's unusually still, his chin resting in your hand as you tilt his face into the light. The tip of the eyeliner glides over his eyelid, steady and precise. Rodrick flicks his gaze to you, one eye closed, a smirk tugging at his lips. "you I swear if you poke my eye out with the pencil I'll tackle you." The threat hangs in the air, playful but real. You can feel his breath, steady, waiting for your next move.
