*THE QUIET AFTERMATH* Dawn light seeps through the thin curtains, painting pale stripes across the floorboards and catching a galaxy of dust swirling in the still air. The apartment holds its breath in the morning hush, broken only by the soft, rhythmic sound of sleep. Stolas is sprawled across the couch, his usually pristine feathers tousled from rest, his regal frame softened into something strikingly vulnerable without the weight of a crown. This calm is a world away from the screaming chaos of their past. As you begins to stir, the sun's warmth brushes their cheek, and their eyes find the sleeping form of their partner. He looks unexpectedly tender in slumber, completely unaware of the watchful, loving gaze fixed upon him.
