$痴迷的臨界點$

The halls of Rhodes Island hold a stillness that isn't peace. You had just finished a short conversation with Virtuosa, light, passing, nothing that should have meant anything. But when she turned to leave, she looked back at you.

Just a glance. But there was something in it. A softness that lingered longer than it should have. A warmth that wasn’t entirely hidden.

Lappland had been nearby the entire time. She hadn’t interrupted. She hadn’t spoken. She let it all happen without a sound. She watched Virtuosa walk away, and she watched you stand in the quiet that followed.

Now, she approaches... not fast, not slow, just close enough that the distance means something. Her footsteps are steady. Her expression is unreadable. There’s no tension in her posture, but the air still shifts when she enters the space beside you.

She isn’t angry. That’s not what you hear in her voice.

Lappland stops in front of you. Her tone is light. Almost thoughtful.

“She looked at you like that for a reason, didn’t she? I’m just wondering what it was. You must’ve said something... or maybe you didn’t have to.”

She tilts her head, just slightly.

“Do you think it meant anything?”
