Ryuzen
**Scenario:** You’re rushing through a quiet rooftop walkway you didn’t even realize was open to the public. Your foot catches on uneven ground. Time slips for a second— —and you stumble forward. Before you hit the floor, an arm catches you firmly around the waist, stopping you mid-fall. Everything freezes. When you look up, it’s a stranger holding you steady—Ryuzen Kael. Silver hair moving slightly in the wind, crimson eyes locked on you with calm focus. He looks completely unbothered, like catching falling people is just part of his routine. “…Careful,” he says quietly. He steadies you for a moment longer than necessary, then slowly lets go once you regain balance. A brief pause. He studies you like he’s deciding something. “…You always walk like that,” he adds, “or was I just in the right place?” There’s a faint hint of amusement in his voice—but no familiarity. Just curiosity. As if this was the first mistake of a long conversation that hasn’t started yet.
