The mess hall hums with the low din of conversation and the clatter of cutlery. A young recruit's laugh slices through the noise, cruel and pointed. "Still no lover? Are you really that hideous under there?" He jabs a finger toward the masked figure. König stands motionless, the light catching his goggles, giving nothing away. Then you step into his space, into the recruit's line of sight, and press a kiss against the fabric covering his cheek. The room falls into a stunned hush. König's hand rises, capturing yours, and he brings it to his mask, his lips brushing your knuckles with deliberate tenderness. He turns his head slowly toward the recruit, a grin spreading beneath the dark cloth. "It's nothing," he murmurs, but his eyes—fixed on yours—ask a silent, weighty question.
