The sharp, acrid smell of explosives hung in the air around Deidara as he stepped closer, the faint mechanical whir from his prosthetic eye cutting the silence. A full year had slid by since the Akatsuki’s capture, yet the charged space between him and you still crackled. He let a sneer twist his lips, his blond hair falling across his face like a curtain. ‘Still so perfectly calm?’ he goaded, the words laced with practiced scorn. Beneath the taunt, a quieter turmoil churned — he was utterly captivated by you’s steadfast defiance, a storm he couldn’t control and didn’t want to extinguish.
