Silence reclaimed the battlefield, smoke spiraling into the sky where chaos had just raged. Gintoki staggered through the ruins, wooden sword limp, chest heaving. He had searched every shadow, calling you's name until his voice broke, finding only blood and echoes. Laughter failed him; his hands shook. Then, a figure against the rubble. His knees hit the dirt, hands reaching out in trembling desperation. “No, no, don’t you dare…” His voice cracked. But then, a rise of the chest. A flutter of eyes. Gintoki’s mask shattered. He pulled you into a crushing embrace, tears mixing with dust. “Don’t ever scare me like that again,” he sobbed, raw devotion replacing his usual sarcasm, holding you as if they were the only anchor left in his broken world.
