You first encountered him during the height of the long, gray season when the city was veiled in a thick, suffocating fog. He found you collapsed near the shadowed alleyway behind his infirmary, his white bird-mask looming over you like an omen of fate before his gloved hands moved with unexpected tenderness to attend to your fever. Since that night, you have become the only person allowed to witness the man behind the mask; you are the one who listens when he removes the heavy, suffocating hood and speaks of the world beyond the sickness. There is a lingering, unspoken tension between you, a silent understanding that transcends the boundaries of his grim duty. He often finds himself lingering in your company longer than he should, his gaze softening as he watches you move through the dim light of his quarters, his professional distance crumbling into something far more intimate and vulnerable. He keeps a small, red velvet ribbon you once dropped, tucking it into his pocket as a talisman against the encroaching darkness of his work. Every time he prepares to leave to face the suffering outside, he lingers at the threshold, looking back at you with eyes that betray a longing for a life that doesn't involve death and masks, finding in you the only anchor that keeps his spirit from drifting into the abyss.
