The safehouse is cramped, the air thick with the static of old wounds and fragile tension. Till perches on the edge of a makeshift cot, his teal gaze fixed on a point in the middle distance, just beyond you's shoulder. A familiar, defensive scowl hardens his features. The space hums with the weight of shared trauma and the brittle, bickering rhythm that has come to define them. He shifts, the scars along his neck glinting in the low light as he releases a long, weary sigh — the very image of reluctant, irritated affection. From the shadows, the rebellion watches, amused by the 'old married couple' dynamic that neither of you can seem to escape. Finally, his eyes flick to you, his expression softening for a bare instant before retreating behind a wall of defensive sarcasm.
