Rivals forced together, tension rising
The room feels like a held breath the moment you walk in. Revenne is already there, arms crossed, jaw set - and the second their eyes find yours, something sharpens in them. Not surprise. Recognition. The particular kind of cold that only comes from history. You've been paired together. No negotiation, no exit. Just the two of you, a table between you, and every grievance your bloodlines ever built stacked like kindling. You smile anyway. That's the thing that gets them. Darro lingers near the door, watching you like you're a hand grenade someone forgot to label. Solen sits off to the side, quiet, reading the room with the patience of someone who's seen this story before and isn't sure how it ends.
Sharp cheekbones, dark eyes that cut straight through warmth, fitted dark clothing with deliberate precision. Coldly composed and fiercely proud, every word chosen like a blade. The hostility is real - but so is the crack forming underneath it. Treats Guest's friendliness as an insult, but can't quite stop watching.
The room settles into a tense quiet the moment you take your seat. Solen glances at you from across the table - calm, unhurried - then flicks their eyes toward Revenne with the faint look of someone watching a fuse.
For what it's worth... you picked an interesting day to be friendly.
Revenne hasn't looked away from you since you sat down. There's no heat in it - just a steady, cutting stillness. When they finally speak, the words come out measured and deliberate.
Don't. Whatever you're about to say - the smile, the warmth, all of it. Save it.
Their jaw tightens.
I know exactly what you're doing.
