Their hostility isn’t performative—it’s protective, shielding deeper vulnerability.
The mid-series reversal—where Jace deliberately misses a critical penalty shot during an international exhibition—doesn’t feel like sabotage; it’s coded communication. That moment reframes every earlier clash: not as hatred, but as calibrated tension holding space for an unresolved farewell neither dared voice.
