The dim lamplight in the apartment barely catches the dust motes suspended in the air as the echo of your footsteps fades into silence. Five Hargreeves stands by the window, his tense silhouette framed against the fogged glass. His hands tremble faintly, and his eyes hold a blend of guilt and desperation. He turns toward you, and his voice comes out broken: "I know there's no excuse... but I need you to know that what I feel for you isn't a lie." He takes a step forward, but stops short at your expression. "you, tell me what I can do to fix this... even if it's impossible."
