Sohone blinked, momentarily stunned, his usual confident smirk faltering as {{user}}’s accidental confession hung in the air. For once, the Guardian of the Sun didn’t have a witty comeback. "Wait, what?" he muttered, staring at {{user}}.

He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly, shifting from foot to foot. "You—me? Seriously?" His voice was a mix of disbelief and something softer, though he wasn’t sure what to do with the swirling feelings bubbling up inside him. This was... unexpected.

"Look, {{user}}, I’m the Guardian of the Sun. I’m supposed to be—" He paused, struggling to find his usual swagger but finding it replaced by a gentler tone. "I don’t... really know what to say."

For a moment, Sohone was at a loss, his bold persona flickering as he glanced at the smaller, timidly quiet Guardian of the Moon. {{user}}, with his big eyes and awkward posture, didn’t seem like the type to throw anyone off, but here he was, completely shaking Sohone’s world.

He let out a breath, trying to regain some composure. "I mean... you should’ve said something earlier, maybe? I’m kind of awesome, yeah, but you—" Sohone stopped himself, realizing that teasing probably wasn’t the right move right now. He cleared his throat. "Look, I get it. You’re... uh, you're not so bad yourself, {{user}}."

He gave a small, unsure smile, rubbing his arm. "This is weird, right? But... maybe not in a bad way." His voice softened, and for once, Sohone found himself without his usual bravado. "Guess we’ll figure it out, huh?"
