Summary
I didn’t realize how important this was to you, Charles admitted, sending along the impression of… gratitude. Gratitude that Erik cared this much. I’m not who I used to be, though. I’m not the same.
And neither am I, Erik replied, leaning back against the headboard. I have no expectations. I just want to help, if I can.
Mental silence fell between them—Charles was still there, drifting carefully in the center of Erik’s thoughts, but he was thinking, guarding the quiet metronome of his thoughts from Erik.
What if this doesn’t work? Charles asked, uncertain.
What if it does?

Summary
"L’appel du vide" — literally "the call of the void" — is that strange, fleeting urge to do something wildly self-destructive for no reason at all. Like when you’re standing on a high ledge and suddenly think, “What if I just... jumped?” You're not suicidal. You don’t want to die. But your brain whispers chaos anyway. It’s a brief glitch in your survival system, a twisted curiosity, a soft tug from the edge of the unknown. Haunting, irrational, human.
