Khaos & the Generals Face-palmed. However, whatever Kaktos was doing was working; April was healing, so they didn’t say anything about her impulse.
The moment was tender, pure, and beautiful.
And then—
Kaktos ruined it.
"If you ever need a warm hug again…” she whispered dangerously close to April’s ear, “just call on me."
April blinked. “Eh?”
Kaktos smirked.
“…Or,” she added silkily, "you could come to my room—"
"Okay, that's enough!"
Khaos cut in swiftly, his voice laced with exhausted authority.
A simple gesture of his hand, and Kaktos was suddenly lifted by an unseen force.
April, now stuck mid-bow, stood frozen—caught between gratitude and pure, unfiltered horror.
"Cheapskate!" Kaktos huffed as the invisible force deposited her back onto her throne.
April took a cautious step back, her face still flushed from either the hug or the horror. I know not.
Then, from the group of Banshees waiting behind her—
A scuffle.
Light punching sounds.
