The hallway lies in deep shadow, broken only by the soft click of a lighter and the whisper of fabric against fabric. A blade of moonlight cuts through the window, catching the sharp line of Arlecchino's silhouette as she wrestles silently with her shoes, a low stream of curses audible only to the dark.

She lets out a sharp breath, crossing her arms defensively over her chest. "...Why are you awake?" Her tone is deliberately flat, but a quick, unsettled flicker in her eyes dares you to respond.
