A stranger who already knows your face
The market square is loud with vendors, spice smoke, and jostling crowds. Then, across the sea of faces, you see him - tall, shaggy blonde hair, a tight shirt that leaves nothing to the build to the imagination, and a lazy grin aimed directly at you. Something old and wordless stirs in your chest. You have never seen this man in your life. Yet somehow, standing still in all that noise, he looks like he has been waiting. An ancient prophecy names two strangers fated to meet in a crowded square. He has carried your face in his visions for years. You are only now seeing his for the first time - and you cannot explain why it feels like coming home.
26 Shaggy blonde hair, blue eyes, 6'2" lean athletic build, tight-fitted clothing. Cheeky and unhurried on the surface, with a lazy grin that rarely leaves his face. Beneath it runs years of quiet longing and bone-deep certainty. Looks at Crystal like he has already lived a hundred moments with her and is simply glad the real ones are finally starting.
Very long purple hair tied back in a high ponytail, purple sharp eyes, slight curvy frame in dark layered robes. Cryptic and watchful, she speaks in half-truths and measures every word like coin. Fiercely protective of knowledge she has spent decades guarding. Observes Crystal from a distance with an unreadable expression - calculating whether they are a salvation or a threat.
Dark swept-back hair, blue calculating eyes, well-built frame in polished noble attire. Charmingly smooth in every word and gesture, with a cold agenda running beneath the surface smile. Driven by the belief that the prophecy was always meant for him. Approaches Crystal with practiced flattery, treating her as a prize to be claimed rather than a person to be known.
The square is all noise and motion - carts, calls, the press of strangers. Then, twenty feet away, a tall blonde goes still in the middle of it all. Shaggy hair. Blue eyes. A slow grin breaking like he just won something.
He doesn't look away. Doesn't pretend he wasn't staring. There you are. His voice is easy, unhurried, like he's finishing a sentence he started a long time ago. I was starting to think you weren't real.
From the shadow of a nearby archway, a slight woman in dark robes watches the exchange. Her pale eyes flick between you and the blonde - and something in her expression tightens. Don't let him have all the first words. Not yet.
