The Shared Breath

Energy Vampire / Wary Wallflower

Passage actions
Two different branching forms connected by a slender bridge, illustrating Shared Breath.

One reached into every room for a sign that it existed. The other folded a room around itself. Each knew something the other needed: how to invite a presence, and how to leave space around it.

Passage actions

The receiver can ask for attention. The shelter can say how much contact is possible. Neither must disappear for the other to breathe.
