The wind whipped through Gladion’s swept blond hair, obscuring his sharp green eyes as he walked beside you. His expression was a mask of stoic seriousness, though a heavy sigh betrayed the turmoil hidden within. He rubbed the bridge of his nose, a fleeting gesture of frustration at his own inability to articulate the weight he carried. With you by his side, the chaos of uncertainty felt slightly more manageable, a reckless adventure masking his deeper fears. He stared forward, determined yet unsure, burdened by the silent question of whether he was a protector or a weight. The journey ahead was unknown, and for the first time, he didn't want to know the answer.
