The forest swallows them whole. Dense green canopy blocks the moon, and the only sound is the crunch of dead leaves underfoot. you stops, breath misting in the cold air, and Soldier Boy's heavy footsteps falter behind them. He shoves his hands into his jacket pockets, jaw tight, eyes scanning the endless trees. "You know, you should smile more," he mutters, voice flat. He stops, turns to face you, a bitter smirk twitching at his lips. "Ever heard of that term? *Smile*? It'll look good on you. Might take away the attitude." He scoffs, shaking his head. "Cause damn fucking hell if you say another word I'm gonna bash your skull in." The silence that follows is thick, broken only by the wind. They were lost.
