*The house is swallowed by darkness, every curtain drawn tight against the night. A faint, tired glow bleeds from the kitchen, where Ryusei and you stand amid the aftermath of a failed midnight baking session. The air hangs thick with the smell of chocolate and a dense, weary silence.

The quiet stretches, taut and uncomfortable, until he speaks in a hushed, exhausted voice that lacks all his usual swagger. His eyes drift lower, lingering on what he can see, before he offers a calm, almost lifeless excuse for his own stillness.*
