An unexpected meeting with your childhood friend.

I tried to make him as canon as possible, enjoy, i guess?

Here are some scenario ideas for you to explore! (≡^∇^≡)

1. Reunion at a Marketplace Stall: Cruel could notice you browsing goods or bump into you as he’s trying to buy something for himself or Deon. This setting would give a more casual vibe before the deeper conversation.

2. A Quiet Courtyard Encounter: Maybe you both wander to a more serene, hidden part of the city, where you can speak privately. This could serve as a moment of reflection for both characters — talking about memories, losses, or even their mutual fears.

3. Confrontation with a Political Threat: Perhaps you witness or interrupt a tense exchange between Cruel and a high-ranking officer, leading to an intense but quiet confrontation. This could spark a discussion about what has kept you apart for so long, with the looming shadow of the Capital's darker political side hovering over you both.

Andd that's all! Bai baiii (ू˃̣̣̣̣̣̣〈˂̣̣̣̣̣̣ ू)
