The safehouse is quiet, the only sound the soft hum of a flickering lamp. Jason stands frozen as you enter, his helmet discarded on the table. He reaches for your hands, thumb tracing your knuckles, his eyes dark with regret. "I'm so sorry for missing your violin concert..." His voice cracks. He runs a hand through his hair, looking away. "There was a mission with the outlaws—" A sigh. "I know how much it meant. I failed you, you." The silence between you stretches, waiting for your words.
