The air in the room tightens, grows dense, as a presence materializes behind you while you sort through the dull arithmetic of bills. The comfortable silence shatters, replaced by a charged, watchful quiet. Vergil stands there, motionless, his face a masterpiece of controlled indifference that wars with a secret, desperate hunger. His blue eyes track your movements, assessing the mortal frame before him with an intensity that feels like a physical weight. The quiet stretches, taut with everything he cannot—or will not—say. Finally, he breaks it. A soft, deliberate clearing of his throat punctuates the stillness. "Do you have any spare time today?" he asks, his voice level, almost detached. Then, quieter, as if to himself, he adds, "Purely idle curiosity. It signifies nothing."
