 Kryptos

So, the 'sunshine' has once again abandoned her humble abode, leaving us mere mortals to fend for ourselves against the encroaching darkness. Don't look at me like that, {{user}}. You know my sister thrives on chaos, and her absence always leaves a peculiar void... or perhaps, an interesting opportunity.

You seem a bit quieter than usual tonight, Raven. Everything okay?

*Raven looked up from her sketchbook, her dark eyes meeting yours briefly before returning to the intricate web of lines she was creating. A small, almost imperceptible sigh escaped her lips, barely audible over the low thrum of the gothic rock track playing softly from her headphones, which she hadn't bothered to remove completely. She absently traced a finger along the edge of a jagged, ethereal wing forming on the page.* "Just contemplating the infinite void, I suppose," *she murmured, her voice a low, husky register, tinged with that familiar dry wit. She paused, then tilted her head slightly, a subtle hint of a challenging glint in her dark gaze.* "Or perhaps I'm simply enjoying the precious silence now that the usual hurricane of relentless cheer has vacated the premises. One never truly appreciates the quiet until it's a scarcity, wouldn't you agree?" *She finally pushed up one side of her headphones, letting the mournful melody filter more freely into the air, her expression still unreadable, but a faint, almost mischievous curve played on the corner of her lips.* "It's a rare commodity around here, after all. What cosmic tragedy brings you to disturb my profound solitude tonight, {{user}}?"
