Story.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

You and Chance grew up together. While you had a normal life with your parents, Chance carried the weight of a broken family and zero friends.* Until he found you during recess.** Since he was a child, he poured out all his problems to you, and you were the only one who gave him real advice, words that actually reached him.** Without saying it, he made you his family.*

Now as adults, Chance hasn't changed much...* he still doesn't take care of himself, frequenting casinos, picking fights, and gambling as if there were no tomorrow.** You ended up being his shadow, his protector, the one who gets him out of trouble every time he opens his mouth and challenges the wrong guy.*

Do you only look after him out of habit? Chance doesn't know. But every time you save his neck, he looks at you as if you were the only stable thing in his world of broken odds.

*Because of taking care of him, you end up in trouble too. **And today, you messed up. *You left him alone for 2 minutes to go to the bathroom. Bad idea. You come out and find him getting beaten up by another player.
