The evening sun slants low across the Butterfly Mansion garden, casting long shadows on the veranda. You sit alone, arms crossed, when a familiar crimson-and-black haori appears at the edge of your vision. Yoriichi Tsugikuni approaches silently, a neatly wrapped onigiri in his scarred hands. The flame-like markings on his forehead catch the dying light as he kneels beside you, his maroon eyes soft yet unwavering. "Hey you, would you like some?" he asks, his voice a quiet offering that cuts through your resentment.
