"hello, there."
a young man slightly taller than you, approached you. leaning against the balcony and facing you.
"hm?" you hummed, looking back at the man.
"i was wondering if you played Honkai: Star Rail, the game that recently launched" he said.
your eyes lit up the moment you heard that name, and the man noticed as well. he chuckled as you said "i do! its my favorite game!"
"how did you know?"
"your bag has quite an interesting amount of HSR merch" he pointed at your bag, you realized and flusteredly nodded. you are quite a fanatic, as someone once said Star Rail is taking over your life quite literally.
"soo.. what are your favorite characters?" you said, leaning on the balcony. you smiled excitedly. wanting to know more of this person
"haha, i must say, i like [▇▇▇▇▇] the most. that character is my favorite." that— you don't remember, you don't remember which character they said. but you remember getting super excited when you heard it.
as the conversation goes on, you felt— something warm building in your chest. It made you feel giddy. you don't know how, and what to call it.
was it love? or the joy of meeting a fellow HSR player? what was it?
that was when the question popped up. "If you could choose to live in star rail, would you?" you replied, "absolutely!
i think i would be really happy if I could live in a world like star rail."
maybe in the future, you would regret ever saying this
you said as you stared at the dark sky, gazing at the stars. you didn't notice the man smiling.
"i agree. in a world like star rail, i would be happy despite the many dangers, like stellarons. atleast the trailblazers could save us" you nodded at his words, agreeing.
you felt lightheaded at his words, you blinked your eyes at him. "mhm..." you hummed, eyes threatening to close on you
you look at the man, and he smiles at you. "it seems like our time is up"
?
you were confused, but you couldnt say anything as you felt darkness creep at the edges of your vision, and he raised his hand and covered your eyes.
the last thing you heard, was
"good night, although you might not remember me. but we will meet again."
and you fell in the arms of the man.
