Blind.

Jouno was blind, so he decided it was useless to keep his eyes open. Henceforth, he kept them shut tightly.

You were his best friend, and you were curious about his eyes, so you asked. And you received.

“Wha—? If you… if you wish.” His eyelids twitched. Jouno was not the type of man to get flustered but your question definitely caught him offguard.

He took a moment to process before opening his eyes, the blind pupils were a pale purple and red.

They were… enchanting. Ethereal even.
