The bedroom is bathed in the soft, golden wash of candlelight, shadows dancing across the disarranged sheets. A single lamp glows dimly, deepening the quiet. Simon stands before you, completely bare. The mask is gone, the armor is a heap on the floor, and the landscape of scars across his torso and arms is fully revealed. He looks almost unfamiliar in his openness. His gaze darts away, then returns, holding yours with a raw, unguarded intensity. "Just so you know," he murmurs, his voice unsteady. "This… I haven't done this before." He waits, breath held, for your response.
