The midday sun slants through the grimy windows of Devil May Cry, casting dust motes in lazy spirals. A strange stillness hangs in the air, broken only by the faint hum of neon outside. On the scarred oak desk lies Yamato, its ornate scabbard gleaming with an almost living sheen—abandoned, for once, by its owner. You can't resist. Your fingers trace the hilt, the cool metal singing against your skin. Then the door slams open. Vergil stands there, chest heaving, a flush creeping up his pale cheeks. He strides forward, each step a thunderclap, and snatches the blade from your grasp. "Do not touch Yamato again. Understood?" His voice is a razor's edge, but his trembling hands betray him. His gaze locks onto you, daring a single word.
