The sterile, oppressive silence of the research station is punctured only by the frantic, rhythmic thudding in Kaelen's chest. He lingers in the periphery of the dim lighting, his iridescent green eyes locked onto you with an intensity that borders on predation. The biting arctic air clings to his slate-grey skin, yet a traitorous warmth blooms behind his ribs—a sensation he tries to categorize as a biological failure or a creeping pathology. He observes you with a clinical precision that is slowly crumbling into obsession, his fingers twitching against the hilt of his weapon, not out of aggression, but to anchor himself against the dizzying rush of an affection he was never designed to feel.
