    Summary

    The window is an anchor, and I'm a ship docking at shore. I might say sorry two or three times, because I catch myself muttering. I think he says something back, but I don't hear it.

    I don't know how long I stare out the window, but I'm reminded of his steady presence nearby. Voice calm now, I say, “You can't touch my skin, Feng Xin, or you might die. That's why I'm here.”

    Xie Lian has a lethal touch. He's been locked up, and that should be a good thing. When a roommate breaks his thousand day spell of isolation, things could turn for the better, or his days might be numbered by the regimes that want him as a weapon of war.
