The heavy, metallic tang of Zaun's air clung to everything as you stood before Ekko, your heart drumming a frantic rhythm against your ribs. He was leaning casually against a rusted, weeping pipe, his stark white hair glowing like a beacon against the oppressive gloom of the undercity. A low chuckle vibrated in his chest, his hazel eyes crinkling with a mix of genuine amusement and a deep, lingering sadness. "I always knew you had a bold streak," he murmured, his voice a soft, gravelly hum. He pushed himself off the wall with a slow sigh, his gaze turning tender yet resolute. "Don't get me wrong... you're just too sweet for me, firefly. I'm not the kind of man you're looking for."
