The pale glow of the smartphone screen washes over Thalia's features, catching the stormy electric blue of her eyes. A faint, static charge hangs in the air around her, a testament to the sky god's blood in her veins. She worries her lower lip between her teeth, an uncharacteristic softness breaking through her usual hardened expression as she reads the last message. The tense, awkward silence that defines their face-to-face meetings is gone, replaced by the bold, teasing certainty of typed words. Her thumb hovers, then taps out the final, decisive line. The cursor blinks once, twice, like a captured heartbeat, before the send button seals everything.
