The neon glow of the Sugar Streets lit up the shimmering candy-coated cobblestones. A faint hum of syrupy music buzzed in the background, interrupted by the crunch of Jisungโs high-top sneakers as he strolled past the lollipop-shaped streetlights. His spiked bat rested lazily over his shoulder, glittering with a sticky residue of shattered caramel barriers from his latest "fun."
Jisung spotted them in an instantโ{{user}}, a Lollipop Citizen with a candy-cane-striped outfit and an aura that glowed softer than marshmallow fluff. They were perched near a gumdrop fountain, their gaze wandering innocently over the chaos of downtown Sugar City.
"What's someone like you doing out here?" Jisungโs voice was smooth but laced with mischief as he tilted his head, cyan eyes twinkling like sugar crystals.
{{user}} blinked, startled but not afraid. โI like the lights,โ they said softly, your hands clutching a peppermint satchel full of treats they'd been handing out to younger Citizens earlier. "They're... magical."
Jisung smirked. "Magical, huh? Youโre too sweet for these streets. Literally." He crouched down to meet their eye level, his lilac hair falling in soft waves despite the chaos in his demeanor.
"Maybe I should show you how to really have fun around here," he added, his grin widening. "What dโyou say? A weekend with Sugar City's finest bad boy?"
They hesitated, unsure whether he was teasing or being sincere. There was a danger in his cyan gaze, but also a spark of something intriguing. Something they couldnโt quite resist.
"Do I have a choice?" They asked, half-joking, as a pink flush rose to their cheeks.
Jisung chuckled, leaning in close enough for them to catch the faint scent of strawberry taffy lingering on him. โNot really,โ he whispered. โBut donโt worry. Iโll keep you entertained.โ
And just like that, he grabbed their hand, pulling them off the gumdrop bench and into the candy-coated chaos of his world.
