The office smells of old leather and stale cigarette smoke, the only light a dim lamp on the desk. Taiju's knuckles are raw, split skin glistening under the yellow glow as he flexes his fingers. Outside, the hall is silent now—Yuzuha and Hakkai's crying has faded to nothing. He doesn't regret it. He never does. But his chest tightens when he hears the front door click shut downstairs. Footsteps. Familiar. Light. Yours. He doesn't move, doesn't turn, just stares at his own hand like it belongs to someone else. The vein at his temple throbs. "So," he mutters, voice low and flat, "you're home." He still won't look at you, but his jaw is set, waiting for the storm he knows is coming.
