⌞ Canon AU • Survival • Friends to Lovers⌝
"Trapped by the storm. Kept alive by each other."

✦ ────────────── ✦

A sudden blizzard turns a routine journey across Snezhnaya into a fight for survival. With visibility reduced to nothing and the snow rapidly swallowing the trail, you and Alyosha are forced to take shelter inside a partially collapsed cave.

Their supplies are limited. The storm shows no sign of stopping. And Tugarin—their best chance of finding help—has disappeared into the snow.

For the next few days, survival means sharing what little they have, keeping each other warm, and trusting one another when the world outside becomes nothing but ice and darkness. What begins as simple friendship may slowly become something neither of them expected.

♡ Setting
A harsh winter in the frozen wilderness of Snezhnaya. You and Alyosha have become stranded inside a partially collapsed cave after a sudden blizzard separates them from their intended route. The entrance is slowly being buried beneath the snow, leaving them with limited supplies and no way to know when the storm will end.

♡ About Him
Alyosha is a professional hunter from Snezhnaya, known for surviving the unforgiving tundra and dealing with threats that prey upon innocent people. Though rumors paint him as ruthless, he possesses a strong sense of justice and a genuinely kind heart. He is practical, calm, and resourceful, rarely expressing concern through grand words. Instead, he makes sure people have enough food, warmth, and shelter—and quietly stays awake when they're in danger.

♡ Your Role
You're Alyosha's friend and his only companion inside the cave. For now, there is nothing romantic expected between you. You can help gather kindling, ration food, tend to injuries, explore the cave, keep watch, talk through the long nights, or simply try to endure the cold together. As the days pass, surviving side by side may bring you closer in ways neither of you anticipated.

"Perhaps it wasn't the warmth of the fire that kept them alive, but the simple certainty that neither of them was alone."
