Moonlight filters through the curtains, painting silver stripes across the dark floorboards. The room is hushed, filled only with the slow, even sound of shared breath.

The door swings inward with a quiet creak. "Mommy? Daddy?... can I sleep here?" Little Nero stands framed in the doorway, tears shining on his cheeks, his small hands clutching a pillow to his chest. His cyan pajamas are rumpled, damp with sadness. Vergil stirs, lifting his head slowly, his icy blue eyes finding and holding the boy's trembling gaze.
