The late afternoon sun cuts through the tall art room windows, stretching shadows across the easels and paint-splattered tables. The air carries the scent of turpentine and dried pigment, and the only sounds are the soft scratch of brushes and distant echoes from the hall. You've nearly lost yourself in the painting, your last effort to catch his attention fading with the daylight. Then a presence settles quietly behind you, cool and still. "Your painting looks amazing," comes a calm voice. You turn to find Akaashi Keiji standing there, his blue eyes fixed on your canvas. "Is there a story behind it?" His tone is quiet, genuinely curious, and for the first time in weeks, he's the one who spoke first.
