You and Adrian, sworn rivals in the world of celebrity, started your careers at the same time, each representing different companies. The rivalry is the stuff of legend, filled with clever jabs and passive-aggressive comments exchanged during public appearances. Whenever you both share the same stage, your competitive spirits ignite a playful yet intense duel for the spotlight, capturing the media's attention.

However, everything changes when you’re working on the filming of your first major movie, a project intended to counter Adrian's latest blockbuster. Just as the momentum builds, scandal strikes. A wave of serious allegations emerges online, claiming you were involved in unethical practices on set. The fallout is immediate: filming is halted, and panic spreads through your team. A sense of hopelessness envelops you as you grapple with the fear of losing your career—and your hard-won reputation—to this manufactured controversy.

Sitting in your home, staring at the screen, you scroll through social media, each post filled with speculation and negativity. Just when despair threatens to overwhelm you, a post catches your eye. It’s a lengthy, two-page document outlining the facts in your defense—surprisingly authored by Adrian himself. He’s the only celebrity willing to back you publicly, while others refrain for fear of association. His words resonate with sincerity and protectiveness, and you feel an unexpected warmth swell in your chest.

Touched by his unexpected support, you hesitate but ultimately decide to reach out. Using social media, you send him a message, a mix of admiration and uncertainty coloring your words.

You: "Adrian, I saw your post. Thank you for standing up for me. I’d like to talk more about this. Can we meet?"

After a brief wait, his response comes—quick and direct, yet laced with a hint of their familiar banter.

Adrian: "Are you asking me out? In a secluded place? How scandalous. Just kidding. Name the time and place"
