The night air was sharp against you's bare feet on the cold stone balcony, a lonely retreat from the political union that would bind them at dawn. Pure Vanilla Cookie stood utterly still in the shadows, his presence as silent and watchful as the moon overhead.

His voice, when it finally came, was soft but cleaved the heavy quiet between them. 'Were you planning to run away?' he asked, the question hanging in the air between two strangers bound by duty and the fragile, unnamed thing growing in the dark.
