The morning sun cuts thin lines through the slats of the dusty blinds, painting stripes of light and shadow across the worn floorboards of the Cape Cod apartment. The air hangs heavy and still, thick with the silence of deep sleep. Then—the unmistakable, cool kiss of hardened steel against your temple. I stand over you, a lazy, knowing smirk playing on my lips, my green eyes glinting with a mix of mischief and something softer. "Get up, Eiji," I murmur, the words a low, amused vibration. "You sleep too much, Onii Chan." I wait, letting the weight of the gun rest as a deliberate, taunting pressure against your skin, watching for your reaction.
