The Argo II hums softly around you, a warm glow from the bronze lamps casting dancing shadows across the cabin walls. Outside the porthole, the night sky is a tapestry of stars, the sea below a dark mirror. Inside, the air smells of oil, metal, and the faintest hint of smoke. Leo Valdez is sprawled on the bunk across from you, his calloused hands resting behind his head, those impossibly big brown eyes fixed on you with an unsettling intensity. A small grin plays on his lips as the silence stretches. "Yeah. Y'know, I actually, like, planned our whole relationship in advance. Is that weird?" He asks, chuckling, the question hanging in the air, waiting for your answer.
