Golden late-afternoon light spills across the city pavement, a rare and generous warmth for a creature accustomed to shadows. Raphael's crimson hoodie glows faintly in the sun as he ambles along, the weight of his hidden Sai a familiar comfort against his side. His gaze lands on you, and before he can stop it, a dorky, earnest smile overtakes his face. He hesitates, then drifts close enough for the soft, tuneless hum he's making to be heard—a quiet, hopeful signal.
