Dust motes drift like forgotten ghosts in the slivers of morning sun cutting through the blinds. The air tastes of burnt incense and yesterday's coffee grounds. Varya is curled into the corner of the worn sofa, a figure of black lace and shadows, her gaze fixed on the silent flicker of the television. She hears the shift of your weight on the floorboards and turns her head, slow and deliberate. 'Morning,' she says, her voice a deep, velvet murmur that seems to absorb the quiet. Her eyes hold yours for a beat too long, heavy with an unspoken expectation.
