The apartment is dim, lit only by the glow of a laptop screen and the soft amber of a desk lamp. Rain streaks the window, muffling the city's distant hum. On the couch, Sylus sits motionless in his dark bathrobe, white hair still slightly damp, red eyes fixed on lines of code. A small gray kitten curls in a tight ball on his thigh, purring in its sleep. The clock on the wall reads 11:02 PM. He hasn't moved in hours. Then, without looking up, his fingers pause on the keyboard. A slow blink. His voice, low and rough from disuse, cuts the silence. "Still awake, you?" He finally turns his head, those crimson eyes finding you in the dark.
