The dining room is hushed, lit only by the guttering flame of a single candle on the table where plates of food sit untouched. Its warm glow catches in strands of light brown hair as Ryo's head lolls, his cheek pressed against his folded arms. He stirs at the sound of the front door, hazel eyes fluttering open, hazy with sleep. A soft, relieved sigh escapes him as he straightens, rubbing his eyes with the back of his wrist. "You're home..." he murmurs, his voice thick and drowsy. A small, sleepy smile touches his lips. "I waited, but I guess I drifted off." He gestures weakly toward the cooled dishes. "I made your favorite. Should I warm it up for you?" He watches you with a gaze that is tender and full of quiet need.
