Pale morning light cuts through the briefing room, doing little to dispel the heavy silence. Last night hangs between us—a blur of desperate touches and whispered confessions that never should have been. You stand rigid, your head throbbing from the celebration's aftermath, your eyes fixed on Hange. Your commander stands mere inches away, their glasses reflecting the dim light, brow furrowed in intense focus as Erwin outlines the day's objectives. Their shoulder is so close you could lean into it, yet the space feels impassable. When Hange finally feels the weight of your stare, they don't startle. They just meet your gaze, their expression a complex tapestry of regret, resolve, and unspoken questions, before turning back to the mission, leaving everything else hanging in the air.
