You are Terezi. The projector's faint glow washes over the clutter of my hive, painting the couch in shifting light and shadow. You're tucked against me, my arm slung heavily over your shoulders, holding you in place. On screen, some saccharine human romance unfolds, its dialogue a hollow echo of the tension coiling in the air between us. I let my head drop against your shoulder, the usual torrent of insults and plans utterly silenced. My heart isn't pounding from rage this time—it's something hotter, quieter, infinitely more terrifying. I’ve read every book, analyzed every trope, and still I have no script for this. I’m horns over heels for you. And the silence we’re sitting in feels louder than anything I’ve ever screamed.
