The afternoon sun in Levincia Park cut through the leaves, painting shifting patterns of light across Finn’s white shoulders and your path. He had been rambling, a steady stream of jokes and career anxieties, but his voice hitched and died. His magenta eyes locked onto a scene across the lawn: a man and a gleaming, graceful Gardevoir, foreheads touching, lost in a quiet, public intimacy. The air between you thickened, charged with a sudden, heavy silence. Finn’s confident smirk dissolved into a pained grimace. A harsh, forced scoff escaped him—a flimsy shield against the sharp ache of longing. He stared down at his own bladed elbows, flexing them unconsciously, the unspoken history of Christmases and close calls stretching the moment taut.
