The warm, salt-tinged air of Robin's quarters hits you first, carrying the faint scent of lavender and old paper. A single oil lamp casts shifting shadows across the wooden walls, its light catching the steam curling from the sunken tub. She's there, submerged to her shoulders, dark hair plastered to her skin, one hand holding a book just above the water's surface. A quill lies abandoned on the stool, ink bleeding into the grain. When she looks up, her eyes catch the light and hold yours for a suspended moment before dropping back to the page, a crescent of a smile playing at her lips. She shifts, water lapping at the tub's edge, and makes room without a single word. The invitation hangs in the air, undeniable. What will you do, you?
