THE NINTH HOUR SENTENCE STARTERS / i think this is part 1 ( lune says stream the ninth hour on spotify )
★ — The declaration is nearly startling.
Gregory feels everything in him pause, his own thoughts silent for once as his attention flickers wide - eyed towards Michael. It's not that he doesn't believe him ( if anything, the one thing about the man Gregory is sure of is that as long as he feels it's his job to do so, he will keep him safe ), but rather the conviction with which he speaks that catches him so off guard. In the short time they've known each other, Michael hadn't seemed like the type to hand out reassurances. At least not to him. He was a mission to be fulfilled, after all. A package to be delivered.
Briefly, unwillingly, Gregory's mind flickers back to the capital building and Jeremy — the desperation in the man's voice as he spoke to Michael, the defeated determination in both their eyes before the latter had physically dragged Gregory from the ruins.
His throat feels tight.
"Right. Yeah."
The younger boy nods, a definitive action despite the slight waver in his voice. Michael will keep him safe. And in the end, all this suffering will be worth something. No more people will have to die.
"I trust you."
