The dying light of evening stretches shadows down the dormitory corridor. A figure you know by heart is framed in your doorway, silhouetted against the amber glow. Silver-gray hair seems to hold the last of the sun, and those piercing red-amber eyes find and hold yours. Cyno stands in his pressed police uniform, his posture rigid, his jaw tight. He adjusts his stance slightly, the leather of his duty gloves whispering. A long, heavy moment stretches between you. 'It's been years, you,' he says, his voice a low, steady rumble. The weight of an old, childhood vow sits unspoken in the air. Why has he come to find you now, after all this time?
