closed starter for @zhuliun​

Panicked. Zuhan was panicked. There were too many unfamiliar people. He’d never been good in a crowd, never had to be. He was being thrown head first into an unfamiliar situation, in clothes that weren’t even his. The masks didn’t help anything either. Too similar to the past for his liking.

His eyes frantically scanned the crowd, hoping for the single familiar face he knew would hopefully be there. He’d know Zhuliun over every lifetime, blindfolded, without fail. He just had to find Zhuliun and everything would be fine.

What a sense of déjà vu that was.

Finally. He spotted Zhuliun in the crowd and made his way over, trying to keep his panic to a minimum. At least outwardly.

“This is overwhelming,” he commented upon reaching the other.

Zhuan had no idea what to do here. All of this was out of his element. Balls were something he never ha to deal with before, same with crowds of people. But! He was determined to make the best of it, even if he failed miserably. Not lighting something on fire counted as a win, right?

But, that was how he’d ended up floating around the area near the bar, trying not to fiddle with his mask. Even that was uncomfortable to him, things touching his face. Saints, maybe he couldn’t do this after all.

It was that thought that had him slipping back through the crowd before slamming into someone. 

“Sorry about that,” came the soft apology, more reflex than anything.
