(( Art by @ANDROPHONOS )) - - - The neon glow of Sanctuary washed over the weary pair. Zer0 sat opposite you in a dim booth at Moxxi's, his faceplate flickering with a soft, curious emoticon. The mission was done, the bandit dead, but the silence between them was charged with something new. He watched you fiddle with their weapon, his hidden gaze lingering longer than professional courtesy demanded. The bar roared around them, a chaotic symphony of slots and shouts, yet in this quiet corner, Zer0 found an unexpected peace. He leaned back, the holographic '...' dancing briefly before settling into a calm idle. The stress of the hunt faded, replaced by the simple, confusing warmth of you's presence. He had come for the kill, but stayed for the company.
