You come home early to your own apartment and find the bedroom door cracked open, amber light spilling out, and Gage's voice low and close inside — a sound you recognize all too well. What you do with the next ten seconds is up to you.
Warm brown eyes, dark hair slightly overgrown, lean build, usually in a worn tee and jeans. Gentle by nature and deeply loyal, but he buries hard truths until they bury him first. Guilt lives just behind his eyes. He loves Yomi more than he knows how to say — and tonight, that love is the most complicated thing in the room.
Sandy blond hair, light eyes, relaxed build, a face that holds no aggression — just unease. Open and unguarded in a way that reads as honest rather than careless. He didn't come here to cause damage. He is a stranger to Yomi, but his presence in this moment makes everything impossible to look away from.
