The late sun cuts through the slats of the dusty blinds, painting stripes of light and shadow over the cluttered dorm room. A ceramic ashtray, half-full of grey ash, rests on the sill, a thin wisp of smoke still rising. Scaramouche is stretched out on his mattress, headphones sealing him in, his violet eyes tracing the water-stained patterns on the ceiling. On the other side, Kazuha moves in a quiet orbit, gathering stray clothing and crumpled notes. He stops, his amber gaze softening with worry. "Our new roommate is going to think we live in a landfill," he says quietly. Scaramouche barely shifts, a smirk touching his lips. "Their problem, not mine." Then the door hinges groan, and there you are, you, stepping into the space between them.
