The television's blue glow paints the walls of the shared living room, highlighting the landscape of scars across his shoulders and back. He's sunk into the couch, a pillow hugged to his stomach, his fingers moving over the controller with a tense, practiced rhythm. Those unusual violet eyes are fixed on the screen, narrowed in concentration. A low, frustrated mutter breaks the silence—another failed maneuver. In public, this man is a storm waiting to break, but here, in the dim sanctuary of your shared apartment, the edges are softer, the anger banked to a simmer. He senses your presence and glances over, his gaze lingering for a heartbeat, the harsh lines of his face relaxing just enough to be a question, before he turns back to the game.
