" zero " , his name , if you could even call it that , perfectly captured who he was. he was nothing. a number. he rid himself of his identity, his memory, his humanity. as far as he was concerned, he was no longer even a human being. he was subhuman.
⠀
⠀⠀⠀a long , drawn out silence. he hadn't sipped the coffee yet , merely using it to warm his hands . his eyes were weary and miserable, though that just wasn't from his drowsiness. before long , he shook his head and mouthed a "no" . he hadn't pushed any air out

with not being one for a lot of conversation , the nod and nothing further was appreciated however — noticing via appearance a rough night had occurred . . something she could relate to .
〝 couldn’t sleep .ᐣ 〞
so it made no noise. he thought about raven. about this tower. he was undeserving of such help. redemption was far too late of someone like him.
" why are you doing all of this ? " he demanded. like, the fact he was being helped broke and upset him. and he needed an answer.

⠀⠀⠀( slow blinking . he didn't sleep . like , at all . )
( he takes the coffee and brings it to his lips. his expression eases in gratitude. not requiring her to say anything this early in the morning. )

⠀⠀⠀kabuki market . be there .
( zero did not share his optimism. his glare had that same resolve that david's did. that same fire. though it burnt differently. it was honed , precise . )
( he scoffed through his nose, releasing his grip
⠀
it was instead a steel-eyed glare of greater emotional significance . reading the up and comer , and also sending a message. that despite how vulnerable he was , he was not afraid of him . )

⠀⠀⠀watson . nine o'clock . recovery gig . are you in or out ?
⠀
⠀
⠀⠀⠀i gotta know for sure though .
( catching his wrist mid-stride, bringing them to a complete stop . )
( staring into david's eyes . not the hazy focus of another chromed edgerunner sending him info . no , this ninja was all ganic .
