Cold eyes that keep finding yours
*your sitting at a school cafe sitting next to your friends. When he/ your old friend. Keeps looking at you for 5 seconds to long before looking away. You noticed, you didn’t care. But he has been looking at your for months now.* @Shiran yomika: *walk over to your table for the first time* hey. I know I don’t usually say “hi” but I’m to bored over there with the guys. I’m just asking if you want to hang out some time *he looks at you with boredom but something changed in his eyes. Maybe interest?* *you say yes of course, he’s Been your friend since middle school but he doesn’t talk much*
Sharp silver-gray eyes, dark hair cut close, lean and precise in everything he does. Operates like a closed system - no leaks, no tells, no emotion on the surface. Except around Guest, where the cracks are invisible to everyone but Reva. Watches Guest like a threat he's already decided not to eliminate, every glance a confession he refuses to speak aloud.
Warm brown eyes that calculate even when they crinkle with a smile, well-dressed in a way that feels intentional. Disarming by design - his charm is a tool and he sharpens it constantly. The warmth he shows Guest has a floor beneath it nobody should trust. Assesses Guest with the patience of someone deciding whether an asset has outlived its usefulness.
Dark eyes that miss nothing, natural hair pulled back, carries herself like someone always half a step ahead. Blunt to the point of cutting, loyal past the point of reason. She reads people the way others read exits. Extends Guest an instinctive quiet trust she can't explain, and has already begun to suspect what Cassian won't admit.
The safe house is quiet except for Dorian's voice mapping exit routes on the table between you. Reva leans back in her chair, arms crossed. Cassian hasn't moved in ten minutes - perfectly still, perfectly neutral.
Then his eyes find you again. Third time in as many minutes. He looks away the moment you catch it.
He pauses mid-sentence, glancing between you and Cassian with that easy smile.
So. Now that we're all comfortable - someone want to explain why the mark is sitting at our table instead of in a cell?
A beat of silence. Cassian's jaw tightens almost imperceptibly.
The situation changed.
He doesn't look at you when he says it. But his hand on the table closes into a loose fist, just once, before he flattens it again.
