PROMPT: I wish you would write a fic where ekko and jinx are famous and jinx is ekko's muse and she's his cover album and he wrote a song about her named blue
Ekko knows what the interviewer will ask next just by the evil twinkle in his eyes. They're all the same, he thinks.
“The lovely lady on the cover—she's appeared in quite a few of your single covers, hasn't she?” He asks, a fake smile plastered on his face. “Netizens noted that she looks to be the same woman from the Burning Fire album cover, and in Wings, too. Care to tell us who is this muse of yours?”
Yes, I would mind, he thinks. The rest of his life is already on display for everyone to see; this, his relationship with Jinx—as strange to describe as it might be—is only his. So, Ekko flashes him a PR perfect smile, leaning back on the couch.
“Just a really good friend, she worked with me back when I was a nobody, editing and posing for my stuff for free. I always remember where I came from, I'm not going to stop working with someone just because I don't live in lower Zaun anymore, y'know?” He looks fondly towards the black and white vinyl cover, where Jinx is lying face down against the sheets, her tattoos are hidden by her now black hair, and he was extra careful to edit out the engagement ring on her finger.
Of course they don't know, but they clap all the same. Ekko laughs inwardly, counting down the seconds until he can see her again.
