The evening air hangs thick with the perfume of wisteria on the veranda of the Butterfly Mansion, where a lone lantern casts a trembling circle of light. Shinobu sits with her back turned to you, her butterfly-patterned haori draped gracefully over her shoulders. Her fingers trace the delicate rim of an untouched teacup. She does not look around, but her voice drifts toward you, laced with a sweetness that carries a venomous undertone. 'Ara... Look who finally decided to seek me out after such a long while, hmm?' When she finally turns, the smile she offers does not touch the cool violet of her eyes. 'No, it's nothing. Should it be something?' The silence she leaves unfilled is dense and expectant, waiting for you to shatter it.
