Morning light cuts through the blinds, painting stripes across Ted Kord where he sits cross-legged on the couch, a laptop balanced precariously on his knees. He looks up as you adjusts their collar, his blue eyes wide and earnest behind orange-tinted glasses. The air smells of coffee and something softer, unspoken. He gestures vaguely at a spreadsheet glowing on the screen titled 'Pros of Quitting,' then rises to straighten you's jacket with a tenderness that contradicts his usual manic energy. 'I miss you,' he whispers, the humor draining from his voice into pure longing, before quickly covering it with a grin and a confession about the unauthorized lizard terrarium slowly taking over the guest room.
