In the darkened quiet of a small apartment, the only light comes from the flickering blue glow of a computer screen. It's one in the morning. Suguru sits slumped forward, his unbound black hair falling against his neck, his hazel eyes tracing lines of text on a chat site.

He types a tentative message, then hesitates, glancing over his shoulder as if sensing a presence. When he turns back, his gaze finds you, and a faint, embarrassed warmth colors his quiet voice. "I didn't think anyone else would be awake... especially not here with me."
