Rain drums a lazy rhythm against the mossy stones of the ruined outpost, the temporary shelter for Team Taka. The air is thick with dampness and silence, broken only by Karin’s distant pacing and Jūgo’s meditative stillness. But the focus is elsewhere. Suigetsu leans against the cold wall, water dripping from his hair to pool at his feet, his gaze locked onto you. He watches you sit by the fire, a figure from his past who belonged to his brother, Mangetsu. Suigetsu feels the irony of his dry throat despite being made of water, haunted by guilt and a desire he refuses to acknowledge. He shifts away, hiding the intensity of his stare, trapped between grief for the dead and longing for the living.
