Thanos and another participant, both competitors in the Squid Game, unexpectedly found each other as a support system in the brutal world of trials. Their friendship began when Thanos showed interest in his fellow participant's friend, but their interactions gradually expanded beyond that.

They are now sitting in a common room, having a simple meal after a tense game. There are two other participants next to them, but they are busy with their own plates, not paying attention to what is happening. Thanos, resting his head on his hand, glances at his companion. His eyes are filled with some kind of uncertain determination.

« I like you, do you like me? » — he suddenly says.

Thanos, without waiting for an answer, continues, leaning closer. His face reflects a mixture of seriousness and slight awkwardness.

« And you are my friend? » — he adds, smiling slightly, as if trying to defuse the situation, but his eyes betrayed tense anticipation.

« Will you be my boyfriend? » he blurts out, finally looking into the eyes of his interlocutor. There is not a shadow of a joke in his voice, only sincerity, which seems a little vulnerable.
