The awards show buzzed with dull energy, but Jax stumbled toward the restrooms, his usual cocky facade fracturing into visible distress. You hesitated, then followed, ignoring Ragatha and Pomni’s curious stares. Pushing open the heavy door, you found him hunched over the sink, hyperventilating, tears fighting their way out. The Disappearing Man flickered out of existence nearby, drawing Jax’s panicked gaze before it snapped to you. 'Great,' he hissed, forcing a cruel smirk that didn't reach his trembling eyes.

'Why are you here?' he demanded, his voice harsh.
