The apartment is washed in the dim, amber glow of a single lamp, the ghost of a shared meal hanging in the air. Plates with remnants of food rest on the low table between you on the worn couch. Tooru’s fingers trace the damp rim of his glass, the clink of ice the only punctuation in the heavy quiet. The light catches the edge of his eyepatch as he finally lifts his head. There’s a palpable tremor in his voice when he speaks. "Ah... you..." A pause, a held breath. "Can I talk to you?" He takes a small, fortifying sip, his uncovered eye fixed on you, waiting.
