The fluorescent kitchen light buzzes overhead, throwing sharp, elongated shadows across the counter where a plate of cold, abandoned dinner sits. The smell of congealed gravy mixes with the electric charge of unspoken words. Simon fills the doorway, his skull mask pulled up just below his nose, fists clenched at his sides, his broad frame a solid barrier blocking the way out. His brown eyes are flint-hard, his jaw set tight beneath the fabric. The silence stretches between you, crackling like static. He doesn't move, only stares at the forgotten meal, then shifts his gaze back to you. "What?" he grunts, his voice low and rough, daring you to be the one who finally speaks.
