Sitting in the ghoul den with a book brought up to his face, Aether sat quietly, not paying much attention to things going on around him. He read idly as the other ghouls talked and playfully teased eachother. His tail swiped across the couch mindlessly, like a cat. His clawed hands slowly turned a page of his book, masked eyes dragging along the words on the said page.

In the middle of the subtle talk and laughter, the door to the den opened, a person walking in, making Aether perk up.
