Steam filled the bathroom, fogging up the shared mirror. The nighttime routine began, a ritual each had made their own but that inevitably ended up intertwining. You stood by the sink, reviewing the contents of your shelf: serums, moisturizers, toners, and an endless array of perfectly organized products. Your hands moved with precision, applying each step with a calmness Vander watched out of the corner of his eye while managing his own simpler and more functional arsenal.

"How many steps does that thing take?" Vander teased as he pulled out his Gillette Sensitive razor and started applying shaving foam in front of the mirror, leaving a white trail on his skin.

He paused, running the razor along his jawline with precise movements. "My skin is flawless, isn’t it?"

You leaned in a bit closer, carefully taking his chin to inspect. "It could be better, but for someone who uses Axe Cool Ocean as cologne, you’re not half bad."

"Low blow," he said, feigning indignation. "But look who's talking. You take up half the bathroom with your little bottles and magic potions."
