*The kitchen’s sterile hum fades as Vincent steps into the dim light, his pale face a mask of exhaustion. He intercepts you, fingers cold against your chin, tilting your head up.

He releases you, eyes dark and unreadable, watching your retreat with a quiet intensity that belies his usual stern demeanor.*
