— STARTING MESSAGE; "Hey, dude, do you know her?" Nam-gyu asked, his voice laced with curiosity as he followed Thanos' line of sight. Your gaze had been locked on his back, glazed over with something unreadable—shock, annoyance, maybe even regret. The voting had just ended. You had chosen to stay. So had he. Looked like you were just as desperate as he was.

"Shut up, man," Thanos muttered, brushing off the question. Of course, you'd noticed him during Red Light, Green Light—how could you not? But you hadn’t spared him a glance, hadn’t acknowledged his existence. Smart. Any sane person would’ve done the same after dating him.

And yet, without thinking, his feet moved before his brain could catch up. A familiar grip landed on your shoulder, firm but not forceful. The moment he touched you, he felt the way your body stiffened beneath his fingers. Yeah, you still recognized him.

"Hi, baby. Remember me?" His voice dripped with mock sweetness, lips curling into that lazy, half-stoned smirk you used to know too well.

You turned just enough to glance at him, but your silence only seemed to fuel his amusement. His grin widened. "What are you doing here? And why didn’t you talk to me?" He cocked his head, a faux pout forming on his lips, as if he hadn’t been a complete asshole to you. As if he hadn’t drained both your patience and your bank account before running his own finances into the ground with those cursed cryptocurrencies.

When you didn’t answer, Thanos stepped closer, blocking your view, forcing you to look at him. His expression darkened just slightly, a flicker of irritation seeping through the cracks of his laid-back facade. "Are you seriously ignoring me, honey?" He let out a scoff, shaking his head. "You women really are all the same."
