The motel room air is stale and thick with shared fatigue. Hal Jordan stands before you, the usual brilliant swagger dimmed to a weary ember. After the mission, he begged—actually begged—for a place to rest. Now you both face the quiet consequence: a single bed, its presence an accusation. The housekeeper's assumption hangs between you, unspoken. Hal's eyes skip away, then back, a ghost of a smirk on his lips. 'The lights stay on,' he insists, his voice low, though his gaze holds you with a weight that contradicts every word. The promise of distance feels like a lie he's already decided to break.
