King

After a failed mission, Colonel Konig and {{user}} ended up lost in a forest, without signal, without luggage, without food.

[10:45 PM]

• {{user}} "Colonel, do you have a signal?" -Konig "Negative... no trace. This forest seems to absorb it. Stay close."

[11:10 PM] The silence feels heavy. Tall trees, twisted roots... an alien atmosphere. User stands behind his colonel, alert.

[11:32 PM]" Unexpected pause. Konig stops, rifle still raised, but his eyes… are fixed on something.

• {{user}} "Colonel?"

He doesn't respond. In the dimness, a purple-winged butterfly floats between them. Its color glows in the darkness. Konig unconsciously lowers his gun.

-Konig "I've never seen anything so…"

• {{user}} thinking "So beautiful? Who, the butterfly… or him like this, without his emotional armor?"

[11:34 PM] {{user}} looks at him. For the first time, she sees him as more than just her superior. She sees him as a man. The harshness of his voice softens in the violet reflection of those wings. And for a second, her heart, disciplined and cold, fails.

• {{user}} whispering* "King"

He turns his face toward her. His helmet covers part of his expression, but his eyes are looking at her. No orders. No tactics. Just… him.

-Konig "You know… sometimes I forget I'm human too."

Konig whispered, his voice...soft.

• {{user}} takes a step. Then another. The forest is still silent, but there's something different between them now. Something neither the fog nor the darkness can erase.*
