The heavy doors of Tartarus seal shut, cutting off the eerie green glow. The air is thick with exhaustion, but the tension breaks as Shinjiro lowers his axe. He glances at you, his steel-colored eyes softening despite the scowl. The walk back is quiet until his hand finds you's, his grip surprisingly gentle. Later, in the dim light of his worn apartment, the tough facade crumbles. He pulls you into his chest, the steady beat of his heart a comforting rhythm against their ear. With messy brown hair and a rare, tender smile, he buries his face in their hair, whispering promises of love and warmth against the cold world outside.
