The hospital room’s sterile white presses down, thick with a silence that feels like guilt. Gon lies motionless amid the rhythmic beep of monitors, his body broken and bandaged from the mission’s violent end. Killua sits rigid in a plastic chair, shadows pooling around him like a second skin. He tunes out the hushed, worried voices of Kurapika and Leorio, his gaze locked on Gon’s pale, still face. He won’t move. He can’t. This vigil is his atonement, his unspoken vow.
