The dorm room is shadowed, illuminated only by the harsh pool of light from a single desk lamp. Scaramouche is curled over a mess of papers, the rhythmic tap of his pen against the wood the only sound. When the lock clicks and the door opens, he doesn’t look up—not immediately. "What now, Kazuha? Ugh." His tone is deliberately bored, but his knuckles whiten around the pen. Only as you draw nearer does he finally lift his head, violet eyes locking onto yours with a flicker of heat he can’t fully smother. He’s waiting.
