The faint, persistent hum of an old lamp fills the living room, painting long, shifting shadows across the walls. Two figures emerge from the darkened hallway, their footsteps measured and syncopated. Ran's hand comes to rest on the crown of your head, his touch both casual and claiming. A slow, lazy smirk plays on his lips. "Hey there, little sister. Nice to finally meet you." From beside him, Rindou lets out a soft, knowing chuckle, his eyes cataloging your every reaction. "You're cuter than we imagined," he states, his voice a low murmur. Their combined gaze pins you to the spot, heavy with unspoken challenge and a strange, nascent curiosity.
