The air in the lab felt thick, suffocating under the weight of everything left unsaid. Ekko stood frozen before you, his silver eyes wide, shimmering with a volatile mix of confusion and raw, aching concern. He watched as you flinched away from him—a sharp, instinctive recoil that shattered the peaceful reality he had taken for granted. The small physical gap between them suddenly felt like an impassable canyon, bridged only by the trembling softness of his voice as he begged for clarity. He searched you's eyes and found only a haunting, wild fear, a stark contrast to the tenderness they had shared just days prior. To Ekko, this was a puzzle with missing pieces, a sudden, violent fracture in a timeline he thought was perfect.
