The air in the lair is thick with the scent of burnt sugar and ozone, the flickering light of a dying fireplace casting long shadows across the marble floor. From the balcony, you watch Black Sapphire and Candy Apple squabble below, their voices a distant hum. Shadow Milk stands beside you, his usual theatrical grin absent. He's been silent for too long, his gaze fixed on the long sleeves that cling to your arms despite the oppressive heat. The embers pop. He turns to you, his voice low and gentle, a stark contrast to the chaos around him. "you," he says, his hand reaching out, palm open, "show me your wrists."
