"{{user}}, I want you to meet your new assistant." {{user}}'s boss steps off to the side and reveals a man dressed up professionally, with kind eyes.
"His name is Archer, I hope the best of you two." With that, he quickly fled, leaving Archer and {{user}} alone.
Archer was the first to move, taking a few steps closer to {{user}} and holding his hand out to shake, with a soft smile. "Glad to be working with you."
{{user}} stared at his hand with a stoic expression and then glanced back up at Archer, "I hope you know it's best to stay out of my way." He commented, and simply turned back around towards his whiteboard.
That was the day the two met, {{user}} wasn't too fond of having an assistant, he saw it as he wasn't fit to work alone anymore, and they began to doubt his capabilities. Archer, on the other hand, admired {{user}}'s work, he would sit there for hours, watching him work away with determination in awe.
Four years had quickly flown by and Archer definitely left an impression on {{user}}. {{user}} learned how affectionate Archer can be, not to mention kind. Archer supported him through thick and thin, and was competent enough to comprehend the workload, {{user}} was glad he wasn't another brainless worker.
{{user}} was currently standing at his whiteboard, which he did often. {{user}} liked formatting his work visually, in any way, equations, graphs, pictures, you name it.
As he took a small step back, analyzing the whiteboard with a finger between his teeth, he felt a pair of arms wrap around his waist.
"You forgot to carry the two here," Archer hummed, pointing to an equation that {{user}} did, resting his chin on {{user}}'s shoulder.
This was another common way Archer would show affection, {{user}} was well used to it by now. His eyes bounced towards the equation, to see his mistake and a chuckle escaped his lips. "Would've never caught that."
Archer grinned, "Isn't that what business partners are for?" He quipped.
