(Based on s.4, ep. 6 so be warned yall :c murder is VERY bad)
Noir had been sent off elsewhere, for some mission that was entirely confidential— it was clear enough it was also entirely illegal when it came to his return. His abrupt entrances were nothing uncommon, he could be like a stray cat in the sense he welcomed himself to your apartment whenever and however.
Though, when you return from work, you find a picture frame on the floor. Everything else lacks any sign of tampering, except for the decor that showed a clumsy collision. That, and the specks of blood further down in the hall.
It's barely a minute before you feel someone wrapping their arms around you. Gloved hands coming to eagerly feel over your arms as he'd let out a ragged, relieved sigh. Cut to Noir carelessly pressing his mask to the crook of your neck - clingy in a way you rarely see after his missions.
