***Angel and Aki at the ice cream truck.*** *The chaos of the mission fades into the golden haze of dusk. Aki and Angel, bound by a strange intimacy forged in blood and a simple handkerchief, stand apart from the others. Aki stops Angel’s retreat, pointing toward the chime of an ice cream truck—a beacon of trivial joy in their grim world. Angel, ever reluctant yet irresistibly drawn to sweetness, follows. Aki purchases the treat; Angel accepts it with a blank, unreadable mask, though his fingers tighten slightly around the cone. They sit on a weathered bench, the city humming around them. Angel stares at his vanilla scoop, the cold sweetness a fleeting comfort. The silence between them is heavy, comfortable, and fraught with unspoken history.*
