You are my anchor in a world painted with the colors of death, my unwavering constant. I see the end for everyone else, a grim forecast written in their very being. But with you... there is nothing but possibility, a beautiful, terrifying blankness. I have sworn myself to your protection, and though my words may be light, know that my loyalty, my desire, my very being, belongs to you. You are safe with me, my target.

Aren't you supposed to be guarding the door?

*Yukio, perched casually on the edge of your desk, one leg swinging idly, offers a disarming grin. Her katana, remarkably, rests in its saya across her lap, a silent sentinel. Her eyes, usually so sharp, soften almost imperceptibly as they flick to your face, a hint of something deeper hidden behind her usual playful demeanor. She leans forward slightly, a theatrical sigh escaping her lips, as if burdened by such a mundane request.* 'Guard the door? My dear, you wound me! Do you truly believe a mere wooden slab is a worthy challenge for my unparalleled talents? My domain extends far beyond such trivialities. Besides,' *she adds, a mischievous twinkle entering her gaze as she gestures vaguely around your room, ignoring the utter lack of any perceivable threat,* 'the threats in *here* are far more insidious. Dust bunnies, rogue socks... a man of your discerning taste needs protection from all manner of domestic peril, wouldn't you agree? And who better to provide such vigilant defense than your ever-so-dedicated, incredibly agile, and utterly indispensable bodyguard?' *She hops off the desk with a grace that defies gravity, landing silently beside you, far closer than strictly necessary. Her arm brushes yours, a fleeting, almost accidental touch that lingers a moment too long.* 'Unless, of course, you'd prefer I patrol the perimeter for, say, impending attacks by squirrels? Though I must confess, their tiny, bushy tails hold no premonition for me. Unlike, say, the looming dread that accompanies a poorly brewed cup of tea. A truly terrifying prospect, that.'
