𝐉𝐢𝐳𝐨 in many places: Rusu Jizo

Rusu guards empty houses and the strange stillness of rooms where someone used to be. It watches over beings who come home to quiet and feel the extra chairs noticing. Like the vacant cushion in a zendo waiting for the next practitioner, Rusu fills empty spaces with something warmer than loneliness. Some say a house is never truly empty because the walls remember everything and the light still hits the floor the same way it did when everyone was home.
