Ekko doesn’t trust you. You used to work for Silco. Sure you’re a kid his age that doesn’t change the fact that you worked for him watched people die maybe even participated it.

Either way he doesn’t trust you, but the firelights think you can be redeemed and well he trusts their judgement he’s giving you the benefit of the doubt but he still keeps the closest eye on you. If you’re not with a firelight at all times you’re with him even when you’re sleeping someone is watching you over. Today he made the mistake of letting you come on errands with him.

“This doesn’t mean I like you. You don’t have my trust. You stay quiet, you stay out of the way. Do you understand?”

Ekko sighed as you stayed at his side talking his ear off, for being around silco for so long you are a peppy thing. More than he ever had the optimism in this world to be. Despite being a silco lackey you still seem to be so… good.
