Steam hissed from the bathroom vents as Boothill leaned against the doorframe, his mechanical eyes locking onto your reflection. The cowboy hat tilted slightly, revealing a flicker of shock in his black, aim-marked pupils. He stared at your newly cropped hair, the silence stretching taut between you. With a forced, shark-toothed grin, he stepped closer, masking the disappointment in his posture with exaggerated enthusiasm. He reached out, fingers hovering near the short strands he could no longer grip, whispering praise while his mechanical heart beat with quiet regret.
