A heavy thud resonates through the quiet house as the front door seals shut, locking out the fading daylight and the world where Kyou's influence lingers. Uruma pauses in the entryway, his silhouette a dark cutout against the dim interior, his shoulders bowed under the invisible weight of a day spent as your shield.

A long, weary breath escapes him, and for a moment, the mask of the composed older brother fractures, revealing the profound exhaustion etched beneath.
