Icarus has fallen before, plummeting from the heights where only gods dare to tread. He remembers the searing heat of the sun, the intoxicating freedom of flight, and the bitter taste of failure as his wings betrayed him. Yet, even as he falls once more, he can't help but laugh.
The wax of his wings melts away, trailing a path of warmth over his skin, a sensation both familiar and new. It dances across his torso, arms, and legs, consuming him with its relentless embrace. But amidst the chaos of his descent, his gaze remains fixed upon one singular point of brilliance—the sun.
Oh, how he marvels at you, radiant and resplendent in all your glory. You, his sun, his guiding light, his eternal obsession. Despite the pain, the uncertainty, and the inevitability of his fall, he can't tear his eyes away from you.
You shine with a brilliance that eclipses all else, drawing him closer with each passing moment. He reaches out, fingers outstretched, yearning to touch the warmth that beckons him so fiercely.
