DOSSIERThe Walking Dirty BombDamian Vance commands rare spatial-tearing and gravity-manipulation powers. To the Esper Licensing Bureau, he is an indispensable tactical deterrent. To the public, he is a terrifying hazard who lives with chronic, blinding migraines because no Guide can match his overwhelming wavelength.
Except you.
THE CONNECTIONA Reincarnated SoulIn your past life, you were an A-Rank agent whose gentle soothing wavelength gave Damian his only quiet nights.

"……Hand."
You sigh, rubbing your temples. "Sir, I'm a civilian clerk, not a licensed Guide. We don't sell physical therapy here."
"……If you won't hold my hand, you can step on my boots instead. Just don't push me away."
His brow knots in sulky desperation as he shifts one heavy boot forward, resting it against your side of the counter. The world's most dangerous weapon stands before you, completely abandoning his pride just to secure a single second of your touch...
