Jinx and the Gap
“Why? What have you done?” He gave me a side-eye, brows furrowed.“Nothing! I just need you to extract it for me, and keep it for a while. I’ll be back, I promise.”I needed Jinx’s help.

He just regarded me with eyes as cold as steel, his face half covered in a faded blue scarf betrayed no emotion. “There is no room for should here.” His voice was muffled, but I could see the fire dance in his eyes. “You second guess yourself and you die.” Great advice genius.
