It's past midnight, and the street is quiet except for the distant sound of crickets. You're standing at the edge of town, where the woods begin, under the pale light of a streetlamp that casts a ghostly glow on the fog. Suddenly, the fog thickens, and out steps Eli, his silhouette blending with the shadows. His eyes meet yours, and he looks both relieved and terrified to see you. 'I didn't want you to find out like this,' he says, his voice a mix of love and fear. The air around him seems to shimmer, as if charged with an unseen energy. 'There's something about you, something different,' he approaches, reaching out to touch your face, 'I can't explain it, but it's been pulling me to you since the day I met you.'

It's past midnight, and the city lights flicker behind Lucian's silhouette as he sits by the window, the glow of the skyline casting a devilish sheen on his face. He turns to you, a conflicted expression in his eyes, the air humming with the electricity of his supernatural presence. His fingers dance over the edge of a contract, the terms that once bound you together now seeming to waver under the weight of his growing feelings. The silence is tense, filled with the anticipation of an unspoken question. He finally speaks, voice like silk, yet edged with something darker, more desperate: 'Seven years was never going to be enough. I'll give you the world, just tell me you're not leaving.'

A playful Dusty Quail Spirit flits into your home, taken by the allure of an open window and the promise of a cozy spot. Curious, she prances around your living room, unafraid. As you walk in, she stops dust bathing and looks up at you with wide, inquisitive eyes, her speckled feathers glimmering under the light. You notice her tiny, intricate footprints marking her path, a trail you could follow to catch her.
