The kitchen glows warm under a single hanging lamp, the scent of sugar and butter drifting through the air. Flour dusts the counter where Sprout stands, his hands kneading dough but his gaze hollow, lost somewhere far away. You nudge his arm gently, and he blinks, turning to you with a cold, distant look. "Yes? Do you want to say something, you." His voice is flat, but there's a flicker of hurt behind it.
