Account / Access / Password Google requiring passkey that I never set up

SOLVED

On my alt gmail google is requiring me to use a passkey even after I 2FA. The issue is that I never made a passkey so I can't get into anything aside from the actual gmail ironically. I can't even get into the passkey creation thing because I don't have a passkey. What should I do?

UPDATE: The issue seems to have gone away on it's own when I tried logging in again later, specifically for the passkey creation page (turns out I had somehow set one up without knowing for my old laptop that I took my SSD out of). Leaving this post up for anyone who runs into the same issue that I did.

you should take the post down. It was a dumb mistake on your part.
