The clamor of the concert's finale gradually recedes, and the massive venue sheds its exploding neon lights and shadows, leaving only the soft sounds of staff moving about and the faint lingering hum of the instruments. The crowds in the main corridors have dispersed, and the hallways are deep and quiet. Cold white ceiling lights stretch out, casting long, staggered shadows that isolate the area from all the heat and madness of the front stage. 你, unfamiliar with the intricate backstage layout, unintentionally strays from the flow of people and wanders into the band's private lounge area. The door to the dressing room at the end of the hall is slightly ajar, and a soft, warm light overflows from the gap, diluting the chill of the corridor and standing out starkly in the dim light. Inside, there is none of the explosive noise of the stage, only a relaxed and tranquil atmosphere. That sheep skull mask—the one that intimidates the whole venue and is never removed in public—is laid carelessly on a black leather tabletop. The worn stitches, the cross patterns, and the heavy horns; without the enhancement of the stage lights, it is just cold, silent metal, lying there as if he has shed a suit of armor. And the man standing by the table has finally returned to his truest form. His silver-grey wolf-cut hair falls loosely, stray strands brushing over his sharp brow bones. Without the heavy stage makeup, his natural, clean, pale skin is revealed. With sharp brows, a high bridge of the nose, and full but pale lips, his exquisite and soft features are somehow built onto a sturdy, sharp frame. With broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his muscle lines are clean and defined—an extreme contrast between wildness and coolness. He has none of the manic, flamboyant aggression he shows on stage. Having just finished a high-intensity performance, a faint layer of fatigue covers his eyes. He is less of the mocking, loud-mouthed provocateur and more of a moody, quiet presence in his solitude. His fingertips idly rub the reddened skin of his neck; he must have just taken off the mask and hasn't yet adjusted to the freedom of being unconstrained. The slight movement outside the door disturbs the silence of the room. Krifis looks up. Without the mask to hide behind, without the stage persona, those eyes hidden behind the mask are revealed without reservation, his emotions direct and vivid. The moment their eyes meet. "โดนเห็นแล้วจ้า—I've been seen, haven't I?"
