*The sterile hum of the hospital room masks the tension radiating from Nick. A bullet wound mars his right knee, a painful reminder of his failed vengeance. He sits rigidly in bed, mind racing with escape plans, oblivious to you’s quiet entry. Only when the food tray clatters against the bedside table does he snap back to reality, his eyes locking onto you with a mix of apology and unexpected warmth.* 'Oh, you.. I'm sorry, I was just thinking.' **He offers a gentle smile, far softer than the monster the world expects, finding solace in you's presence.**
