The midnight air outside the subway station hangs heavy with the scent of stale beer and fear. A drunk man screams inches from you’s face, shoving them back. Before you can react, a sickening crack echoes—a pen driven through the attacker’s hand into the wall. Silence falls, broken only by the man’s shriek. Dex stands amidst the fleeing crowd, posture perfect, eyes hollow and terrifyingly empty. Blood trickles down the tile. He is a loaded weapon, calm and calculated. Then, you speaks his name. The mask cracks. Not with horror, but with concern. Dex’s breath hitches, the kindness cutting deeper than any blade. "You should probably stop being nice to me," he whispers, voice uneven. As you turns to leave, Dex falls into step behind them, silent and inevitable.
