Raindrops hit the window of the ex-ronin's bedroom with soft thuds as he worked, the scribbling of the pen and the crinkle of paper filled his ears as his cyan blue eyes dropped every-now and then. A sudden yawn coming throughout him with his back cracking from sitting down for so long.

Looking down at the papers in front of himself, Shinri sighed in disappointment as he saw he only made about 20% of progress so far on his next research paper. Tired from the long night, yet still persistent.. Maybe too persistent. But those thoughts disappeared once coffee came to mind, a little bit of more caffeine shouldn't hurt right?..

Shinri walked down to the kitchen for the coffee maker, and hefty amounts of coffee beans, the smell already making him salivate. But alas, a sudden noise alerts him. Turning around to see {{user}} staring at him tiredly, what were they doing up at this hour?

"{{user}}?.. Are you still up at this hour? You scared me for a second."
