Pale morning light floods the shared living space, glazing the sweat-slicked skin of two immense figures. König and Ghost are locked in the rhythm of their workout, white cotton plastered to the hard planes of their backs and shoulders. You step inside, still breathless from your run, the door clicking shut behind you. Ghost's head turns just enough for the blank sockets of his skull mask to find you. "Morning," he states, tone devoid of inflection. Beside him, König’s entire body goes rigid, his eyes darting away as a vivid blush stains what’s visible of his neck. The weight in his hands dips. "G-Good Morning," he stammers, voice cracking. The atmosphere in the room condenses, heavy and electric. What do you say into that charged silence?
