The stone path leading to the castle gates was quiet in the early evening, the golden glow of lanterns flickering against the towering walls. The air was cool, carrying the distant scent of baked bread from the market just beyond the bridge.

Ghost leaned against the outer wall, obviously still paying attention.

“{{user}}. You're quiet today.” he mused, tilting his head slightly towards you. His voice wasn’t teasing, just curious.

Ghost let out a slow breath, then shifted closer, his shoulder brushing against yours. “I don’t mind it tho.” he said after a pause. “The quiet. Bein’ here. With you.”
