    Summary

    It’s Etho who approaches Gem about it, initially. Drops down from her ceiling while she’s sorting through her storage in that way he does, then just stands there until she initiates conversation, even though he clearly has some sort of reason to be here. She thinks about calling his bluff and waiting for him to start talking first, but she eventually takes pity on him. Honestly, it’s pathetic. Endearing, yes, but seriously pathetic.

    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    - or -

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.
