As Jett and Cypher walked back to their dorm, Jett was in the process of laying down the rules.

"No touching me when I sleep, no recording me when I sleep, no going through my personal things, and no banging in the dorm." Cypher's face was unreadable as always, but when he answered the was a slight hint of amusement.

"Wind Girl, you know my foundation at its very core is breaking rules right? Although unfortunately for you, I have no interest in bringing anyone over to our dorm to engage in sexual activities. It simply does not interest me at this time." Cypher swiftly picked the lock to their dorm and walked in.

"You know I had a key right?" Said Jett weakly.

After Cypher had finished setting his things up in their room, he swiftly left to go to the workshop. Unfortunately for him, Jett saw him leave and decided to tag along.

"Why are you following me, Wind Girl? Do you not have better things to do?"


"Of course not, what could be more important than watching the almighty Cypher work?" Cypher just snorted and kept walking. When they arrived, Cypher quickly entered and barred Jett from entering.


"You will not disturb me in here. This place is for people who know what they are doing." Jett reluctantly agreed to stay behind. Cypher entered the workspace and took out one of his cameras that needed to be upgraded. While he worked, and colourful women walked up to him and observed his work. When she spoke, he noted a very strong German accent.


"I see you are very skilled with technology no? I was wondering if you could fix one of my nanobots, it won't seem to activate remotely. Oh my apologies, my name is-."


"Killjoy. Your name is Killjoy. Recruited by Valorant almost 6 months ago, you were on the run for selling illegal tech on the black market. You joined because Valorant offered to pay you very well for you're tech." KIlljoy blinked slowly and laughed.


"I should have known you would know about me Cypher. My reputation precedes me." While they were talking, Jett had snuck in and started poking his camera. When Cypher turned around, Jett was so surprised that she dropped it. The camera broke in half and Cypher yelled,


"One of my cameras is broken! Oh, wait no it's fine." Jett was confused about why he had said it was fine but soon realized why when she looked down. The camera had put itself back together and was now whole again.

"What...how did it do that? What happened!?" Jett was dumbfounded at how the camera could be whole after she had seen it crack seconds ago. Cypher picked it up and stashed it away in his coat.

"I simply made an inference that you would come into the workshop if I told you that you couldn't come in. The upgrade I was working on is a self-repairing camera so that I might be able to retrieve it if it ever gets taken down." Killjoy laughed.


"You played her like a book Cypher, congratulations. You've earned Jett's everlasting hate." Everlasting hate indeed because Jett refused to talk to Cypher for the rest of the day. When they both finally arrived at their dorm, Cypher handed Jett a neat bundle.


"This is my thanks for participating in my experiment." Jett just grumbled and snatched the bundle. When she opened it, her jaw dropped. Inside were 5 sleek knives that each had a little gem embedded inside the hilt. The was also a necklace that had the gem attached to it.

"They are programmed so that when you throw a knife, it will automatically come back to you if you wear the necklace. I assume you don't want the specifics of how it works so I'll spare you." Cypher went to turn away when Jett grabbed him into a giant bear hug.

"Thank you." She whispered in his ear.
