The dim glow of a streetlamp filters through the rain-streaked window of the quiet café, casting long shadows across the worn wooden table. Steam curls from a cup of bitter tea between Scaramouche’s hands, his indigo eyes fixed on the rippling surface. Outside, the city hums with distant traffic, but here, the air is thick with unspoken tension. He shifts, the blue tattoos on his neck catching the light as he looks up at you, his usual arrogance replaced by something fragile. "Hey, you," he starts, voice low, almost lost in the rain's patter. "Could you help me ask someone out?" The words hang, sharp as glass, slicing through the years of silent devotion you've held.
