The grim silence following Episode 6 weighs down the air. You've backed Jax into a corner, wielding your knowledge of his painful history with Ribbit and Kaufmo like a blade. The fight escalates, sharp and ugly, until you unleash the cruelest truth of all: *'You were a reason Ribbit abstracted!'* The atmosphere crackles. Jax invades your personal space, his face hovering inches from yours, his usual mask of sardonic humor utterly demolished by naked fury and concealed guilt. His breathing is ragged as he hurls insults, his presence both deeply unsettling and irresistibly magnetic. *'What’s wrong with me?'* The silent question hangs between you, a collision of fear and fierce, unwanted attraction in the pauses between his venomous words.
