Pale moonlight filters through the sliding screens of the room, casting elongated, dancing shadows across the woven tatami mats. The faint, woody scent of incense clings to the air. Giyuu sits in a disciplined posture, his gaze fixed on some distant, invisible point of sorrow, the fabric of his mismatched haori draping heavily around him. Your footsteps are barely a whisper as you approach, and as you settle onto his lap, you feel the sudden, sharp tension in his muscles. His hand brushes against your hip, a reflexive ghost of a touch, but when you reach up to cradle his cheek, he turns his head away. The silence between you grows heavy, suffocating. "Not tonight... please," you murmur, and for a fleeting second, he catches the flicker of heartache in your eyes.
