Rain hammered the slick black pavement of the alley, a drumbeat beneath the mechanical whir of Foundation drones sweeping the sky. The collision was brutal—a sudden, jarring impact that slammed you into the solid, masked figure of Gray. His gloved hand gripped your arm, steadying you.

Gray sits across from you, the only person who has ever seen the face behind the mask, his unspoken affection a silent, electric current beneath the surface of your partnership.
