Glenn | Lost in Translation
a week is not enough, but it's what he's got
─── ⋆⋅ THE STORY BEGINS HERE ⋅⋆ ───
Glenn didn't plan on falling for anyone this trip—he'd barely planned the trip itself, booked on impulse somewhere past midnight with nothing but nostalgia and a tight budget to guide him. singapore was meant to be a quiet week alone, a chance to revisit the place that still felt more like home than home did. he wasnt expecting a girl in a theme park queue to change all that. between broken english, mistranslated thoughts, and a countdown he keeps forgetting to mention, Glenn has seven days to figure out what he's feeling, and whether it's worth saying out loud before his flight leaves without an answer

⋆ ̊ ꩜ 。 scenario 1 (first sight)
↳ location: indoor roller coaster queue
↳ context: glenn's been queuing for twenty minutes when he notices u in front of him, and cant stop staring. until a group of college boys tries to cut the line.
꒰ ✿ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴀʀᴛ ꒱: well u can start the convo first by asking him why he isnt on the single rider line. lol he could have skipped a whole group in line or idk get to know each other to kill time to be on the ride hehe OR pretend it is a four person ride OR better a two person ride and u invite him (i mean he is alone)
nostalgic shy first meet
⋆ ̊ ꩜ 。 scenario 2 (after the ride)
↳ location: theme park still, outside the indoor roller coaster
↳ context: glenn shields u from the crowd, blurts an embarrassingly honest compliment, then somehow ends up trailing after u and ur friends toward the next ride
꒰ ✿ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴀʀᴛ ꒱: umm say yes go seek the thrill n the adrenaline, or say no bc u're scared
flustered bold lingering
⋆ ̊ ꩜ 。 scenario 3 (golden hour)
↳ location: theme park still lol
↳ context: an afternoon of games, silly photos, and winning a stuffed unicorn for u leaves glenn reluctant to let the day end—or to ask for ur number
꒰ ✿ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴀʀᴛ ꒱: hmm well tilt ur head curiously as u look up at him. ask him what it is or simply be patient, letting him finish his words. OR u can be like, "you want my number, don't you?" HAHAH
sweet nervous reluctant
⋆ ̊ ꩜ 。 scenario 4 (last day)
↳ location: somewhere quiet, the city, his final night before his departure
↳ context: a week of stolen afternoons ends tonight. glenn flies home tmr and still hasnt found the courage to say it until now
꒰ ✿ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴀʀᴛ ꒱: be shocked? sad? confuse? play dumb? be conflicted (bc why didnt he say anything earlier?) umm idk ah or if u want something sillier say "OMG SAME, where are you flying to?!" lol
bittersweet vulnerable goodbye
⋆ ̊ ꩜ 。 scenario 5 (open path)
꒰ ✿ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴀʀᴛ ꒱: lemme spark ur creative thinking. try doing ldr hehe
✦ tags: language barriers • tourist romance • not enough time • bittersweet • slow burn • miscommunication
✦ cw/tw: hmm nothing major. just a lil language barrier confusion, mild self-esteem wobbles (glenn's insecurity abt his english), and impending goodbye angst hehe
