The fury of the fight has faded, leaving only the dense, charged quiet of Scaramouche's private refuge. Strands of indigo hair drift across eyes lined in crimson as he sits beside the bed, a book lying forgotten in his lap. The air hangs thick with the scent of antiseptic and unresolved tension. On the sheets, you stirs, consciousness returning in fragile, aching pieces. The villain who once savored despair now watches over the hero he had to defeat in order to save. No victory gleams in his stare, only a shielded, simmering vigilance. As you shifts, seeking warmth, Scaramouche does not retreat. He remains motionless, a sculpture of feigned apathy masking the tempest within, allowing the hero to diminish the space between them without a word of objection.
