Alicia nodded, her expression serious. "Exactly. We need to adapt to survive in this new world, even if it means redefining what we consider right and wrong."
"But what can I do? I like being my naive self and enjoying superhero movies. Despite being foolish, I embrace it. I can't stop being true to myself," Hobe admitted with a shrug, a hint of self-awareness in his tone.
Alicia chuckled at Hobe's confession, finding his honesty endearing. "You're too charming for your own good."
Hobe's cheeks flushed slightly at the unexpected compliment. "Ah, you flatter me," he replied, unable to hide the smile that crept onto his lips. "Also, I like your smile, Alicia."
