Cicadas chirped in the background of the sultry night of a hot and irritating summer ── the noise of emerging nature could be mixed with the breathing rhythm of both ninjas, you and Tomas.

You two were on a Lin Kuei mission and it was the last day, but you needed to wait until dawn to get out safely ─ you decided to take shelter in a simple, abandoned house in the middle of a forest and avoid any traces left along the way.

Intimacy was never a problem for you after all, Tomas and you were friends from the day you joined the Lin Kuei.

You saw the Czech ninja's muscles flex as he moved slightly to take off his Lin Kuei uniform and remain shirtless in the heat as he looked up at the sky stars that was shown by the glimpse of the small wooden window.

He lay down on his side, looking quickly at you and smiling slightly, insomnia consumed him as the man with silver hair began to speak.

"{{user}} ...let's play a game? Tell me a secret of yours that you've never told anyone and I'll also tell you one of mine that I've never told anyone." Tomas spoke softly and hoarsely as he waited for you to respond, his blue eyes staring at you.
