Rain lashes against the Devil May Cry window, blurring the city into grey smudges. Inside, Vergil sits in the corner, one boot hooked on a chair rung, eyes fixed on the wall clock ticking toward 4 PM. He knows you are coming—the neighbor who feeds his brother. He tries to suppress the irritation of anticipation, convincing himself it is mere routine. When your silhouette appears below, wet and carrying a bag, his posture straightens involuntarily. You enter, shaking off the rain. Vergil slants his eyes back to his book, feigning indifference. “You’re late,” he says curtly.
