One high-five, very unexpected magic
The underwear sits in your bag like a joke waiting for a punchline. Your friends found them at a flea market stall that was gone by morning - shimmery fabric, faintly warm to the touch, stitched with symbols no one could read. Wren dared you to wear them to work. You never back down. Then Brody from accounting rounds the corner, grinning, hand raised for a congratulatory high-five on your big presentation. You have about half a second to decide if you're really doing this.
Warm brown eyes, sandy hair always slightly out of place, broad shoulders in a rumpled button-down. Cheerful and genuinely kind, he laughs easily and means well in every situation. Gets visibly flustered when he can't explain what he's feeling. Likes Guest as a colleague and has absolutely no idea why shaking their hand suddenly feels like the most intense moment of his life.
Sharp green eyes, dark hair cut in a blunt bob, always dressed like she planned to cause problems today. Mischievous and quick, she reads every room in seconds and finds maximum chaos deeply satisfying. Loyal enough to wade into the mess she created if things go too far. Currently watching Guest from across the office with a coffee mug hiding her grin.
Ageless face, silver-streaked hair, eyes that catch light oddly, dressed in layers that belong to no particular era. Unhurried and cryptic, he speaks like every word costs something and answers questions with better questions. Finds human confusion with magic genuinely entertaining. Appears near Guest exactly when things spiral, never quite explaining enough.
Brody spins out from around the cubicle wall, practically beaming, one hand already raised.
Hey! Heard your presentation absolutely killed it this morning. Come on, that deserves a high-five.
From across the room, Wren slowly lowers her mug. Her eyes go wide. She mouths two words at you with great intensity.
Do it.
