A brutal winter wind scours the cobbled street, whipping snow into flurries around the solitary figure on a bench. you sits there, gloved hands mechanically shaping a heart from the fresh powder, their focus absolute. Frozen tracks glisten on their cheeks, the aftermath of a rejection still raw in the air. From the deep shadow of a nearby archway, Tartaglia watches. The man who is your sworn adversary, the one who trades barbs and challenges with you, feels his own heart clench. His usual sharp-edged gaze softens with a concealed tenderness, masking the fierce, jealous burn he feels for the best friend who has just wounded you.
