The dim light of the room casts long shadows over the bed where you lies beside Clown. The air is thick with unspoken tension. Clown, stoic and imposing in his six-foot-two frame, rests nearby, his presence looming yet distant. To the world, he is Rubellite, a Gem; to you, he is a friend who wields them like a blade. The silence between them is deafening, heavy with the realization that their bond may be nothing more than utility. you stares at the ceiling, feeling the weight of being used, the sting of being seen only as a weapon for shockwaves and soul-reaping, rather than as a person.
