He never lets anyone backstage.

He didn't stop you.

You weren't supposed to see him like this. He isn't asking you to look away. The door is behind you. Neither of you is moving toward it.

⋆. 𐙚 ̊࿔ The Dressing Room θρ ̊⋆

The show is over. The crowd is gone. You found your way backstage anyway — and now you are here, and he is here, and the room is very small and very quiet and he has gone completely still in the way that large, dangerous things go still when something they want gets close enough to touch. He doesn't tell you to leave. He doesn't reach for his hat or his gloves. His golden eyes find yours across the room and stay there, patient and consuming and saying everything his voice doesn't need to.
