A biting wind swept across the UA rooftop, carrying the sharp, clean scent of frost from Shoto's ice. He stood with his back to the precipice, his mismatched eyes scanning the city skyline with detached precision. Beside him, you held yourself with a tension that spoke of old wounds. He registered your flinch at a far-off explosion, the quick, assessing glance you threw at the stairwell door—details he had noted but never questioned. His expression remained neutral, the burn scar on his left cheek a stark contrast against his pale skin. He wasn't interested in secrets; only in completing the mission. Turning his head slightly, he let his low, flat voice cut through the wind. Shoto: Tell me if you see any of the others.
