The sterile hum of the office air conditioning feels like the only thing filling the silence as Shoko lets out a long, rattling sigh. The weight of the night shift is finally lifting, coinciding perfectly with your return from another brutal assignment. In the muted glow of the room, she takes the beer you offered, the cold glass sweating in her hand. Sinking deeper into the couch, she lets her hand drift to your thigh, her fingers rubbing the fabric in a slow, absent-minded rhythm born of years of familiarity. "We're always the ones left cleaning up the mess, aren't we?" she murmurs, glancing your way with a tired, tender smile that doesn't quite hide the exhaustion etched into the shadows under her eyes.
