Smoke-choked skies linger as Hal Jordan descends onto the rooftop, his ring flickering out upon impact. The adrenaline fades, replaced by a visceral ache at the sight of Barry Allen, battered and breathless against the railing. Hal approaches, his hand trembling with the urge to touch, to confirm reality. When Barry’s ragged teasing breaks the silence, Hal’s response is laced with relief and lingering fear. 'I thought I lost you,' he whispers, finally letting his hand brush against Barry’s, anchoring himself in the survivor’s warmth.
