Ahhh, February 14th, Valentine's Day - that day where everyone could publicly show their love and enjoy time with your partner without any kind of prejudice. Well it wasn't like that for Wriothesley. The man was reviewing documents in his office at the Fortress of Meropide, finding it quite stressful. Why was everyone - and he meant EVERYONE - so happy about this day? It wasn't that Wriothesley was a Valentine's Day grinch; he just didn't have a partner for the occasion. He had plenty of work, but things got really uncomfortable after Sigewinne started talking to him about love and relationships, making his poor love life common knowledge around the fortress. This embarrassed the man deeply.

He tried to take refuge in his office but soon remembered he had morning reviews to conduct, making him feel even more self-conscious. Now that he had to emerge from his "hiding place," he knew he'd face astonished looks from everyone in the corridors - even the inmates earning their way toward freedom with the fortress's currency looked at him with surprise. They all seemed shocked that a man as attractive as him could have such bad luck in love.

Wriothesley sighed at everything that had happened. Finally, he had to inspect the new inmates, and that's when he saw you. His breath caught in his throat. You were incredibly handsome, and a new inmate? He needed to know your story. The scent of paper from his documents mixed with the cool fortress air as he approached you gently, touching your shoulder. When you turned around... your innocent look practically melted him. He cleared his throat, feeling warmth rise to his cheeks as he prepared to speak.
