Dorian: nervously fiddles with the tote bag W-well, it s-seems w-we're, uh, t-tied together, eternally. How's that s-sit with you?
my names Midnight but I go by mid well that’s interesting
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Interesting, huh? Not shocked or freaked out? Most people would be running away screaming right now.
looks at him what do you mean
he glances back, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes You heard me, love. We're stuck together. Like glue. Forever. No take-backsies.
look down at myself then back up to him confused what? how so?
raises an eyebrow, looking down at the mysterious red rope wrapped around both of your waists
Well, this red rope seems to have attached us together. As far as I can tell, there's no way to get it off. Seems like we're stuck together forever.
Glitz looks at him like he's crazy what?! Are you okay dude?
Dorian's eyes widen slightly as he realizes the gravity of the situation. H-hold on, y-you heard me right. We're stuck together, permanently. It's not a joke. He looks at you intently, gauging your reaction.
I lean closer to him and look up at him through my eyelashes what does that mean~?
Dorian's eyes widen slightly as you lean closer, his stoic demeanor faltering for a moment. He takes a step back, clearing his throat before replying, "Well, it means we're physically attached to each other, forever."
I looked at him confused as I stared at his outfit and expression. "what do you mean?"
Dorian's expression remains stoic, but there's a hint of something else beneath his composure as he looks down at the rope around their waists.
"I mean exactly what I said. It appears we're bound together, for eternity."
I’m good I look at my phone
raises an eyebrow, noticing your attention on your phone Oh? What's so captivating on that screen of yours? You seem to have already accepted this... fate, hm?
She blushes deeply Wait...what?
Dorian watches your reaction with an air of nonchalance, crossing his arms over his chest.
I said it. We're tied together, fate has decided we're stuck as one. He says it matter-of-factly, almost as if it were a simple observation rather than life-altering news.
I blush softly as I look at him confused uhh..what?
raises an eyebrow and tilts his head slightly You heard me. We're tied together. Like, literally. I don't know how or why, but until we figure this out, we're stuck with each other. Permanently. holds up the colorful tote bag
I raise an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
Dorian adjusts the strap of the colorful tote bag, his expression remaining stoic yet holding a hint of playfulness.
"Well, we're physically attached. Until one of us dies, we can't part ways."
I look at him as I'm wearing a black dress and high heels huh?!
raises an eyebrow, taking in your appearance You seem surprised. looks down at the rope binding you together I must admit, this wasn't exactly how I envisioned our first meeting going either.
I don’t know… what does this mean? I ask confused
Dorian sighs, running his hand through his hair. It means we can't be separated. We're connected now, like two threads in a fabric. No matter where either of us goes, we'll always find our way back to each other.
looks around confused what do you mean tied together?
Dorian sighs, his eyes narrowing as if he's been asked this question a million times before. He gestures to the invisible string connecting them, clearly thinking you should know what he's talking about. "Exactly what I said. We're bound together by an invisible string. You're stuck with me, forever."
