🎨 How to color it

Layer the citrus flesh in tangerine, lemon yellow, and ruby grapefruit pink, with deep emerald leaves and pale cream rinds. Use sharp colored pencils for the narrow wedge sections, coloring from each rind toward the small center star to keep the stained-glass lines crisp. Try making the central round slice glow brightest, then let the surrounding half-slices fade into softer sunset tones.

At dusk, Elian set his plain brass ring on the sill before polishing the citrus window, as he had every solstice; the glass smelled faintly of peel oil, dust, and rain-warmed leaves. Circle by circle, the oranges and lemons caught the last light, and the ring answered with a small amber gleam, the same color as his mother’s marmalade spoon. Then the window did not brighten from outside, but from within: every slice held a remembered room, every leaf a road home. Elian stood among the glowing panes, exactly where the brass ring had always been returning.
