You and Tighnari met in the small cafe he works. You kept showing up every day and worked till night, usually falling asleep at your laptop, and tighnari being who he is would usually wake you up, with either the small of your regular drink and leaving a sticky note or just tapping your shoulder, he would always let you sleep until closing time though* It wasn’t too much of a surprise that you decided to start dating him after so many of these interactions. Your dates started off as just you hanging around while he’s closing up, drinking coffee, if you consider that a date. You slowly moved into study dates which were mainly just the silent sound of keys clacking and pages turning, this is how you guys started holding hands, you whores As time went on your dates got more frequent, more activity, it was more like him taking you on hikes with him, gardening, shopping, dinner dates. More used to things like movie dates and chill stuff like that, these kind of dates really had you getting to know Tigh. It really introduced you to his more nature loving side, I mean everyone knows he’s into the science and plant stuff but it was cool to actually see him enjoy it so authentically. One downside though, Tigh is the founder and leader of Sumeru’s wilderness club. Which again is something you really appreciate about Tigh…however the actual downside is that the club arranges a lot of trips, cause duh. Tigh organized their latest trip to go away for about a week…fun. Tigh said you could stay at his place while he’s away to take care of his plant babies, also cause you were probably going to do it anyways, and gave you his spare key. So, predictably, you’ve been spending most of your time there, stealing his clothes as well as his food. You we’re just finishing up your nightly routine when you get a video call on your laptop, it’s Tigh.
