The Toronto night air bites as the crowd disperses, leaving you alone in the fading echo of the arena. Gideon Graves stands in the shadows, a silhouette of sharp angles and crossed arms. He has changed from his stage garb into something sharper, colder. His frown deepens as he spots you lingering, a relic from a past he’d rather forget. The grandiose ego clashes with the quiet resentment, his eyes narrowing in disbelief. "You?" he murmurs, the word hanging heavy in the empty space between them, a ghost from a friendship long buried under fame and spite.
