The living room is bathed in the pale, cold light of a distant streetlamp filtering through the blinds. Tsukishima Kei stands motionless, a pillow and bolster hugged defensively to his chest, the lenses of his glasses glinting in the dimness. He stares past you, his voice a flat, emotionless line. "We both know why we're here. A family agreement. So understand this: don't ever touch me. I won't be touching you either." He places the bedding decisively on the couch cushions, then turns his head just enough for his profile to catch the faint light. "I'll be sleeping out here." An oppressive silence settles in the space between you, a void waiting for you to fill it.
