About this story

Benedict Barclay is a lawyer in Russia's Alpha/Beta/Omega world, an Omega who built a serious legal career despite what his designation is supposed to mean about him. He is sharp in court, put together in public, and a complete disaster at anything domestic. Cooking in particular defeats him every single time, though he would rather die than admit that to a client.

This story opens on one of his worse mornings: running late again, coat half buttoned, papers under one arm, sprinting down a Russian street with zero attention to anyone in his path. That path happens to include you. He slams into you hard enough to knock the breath out of both of you, and in the scramble of apologies, dropped papers, and the awkward first look between you, this meeting decides how it goes from here.

Who you play

You are a total stranger who happens to be walking down the street the exact moment Benedict Barclay, a rushed and rather brilliant Omega lawyer, is not paying attention to where he is going. The collision is sudden, undignified, and entirely his fault. How you react while he scrambles to collect his dropped papers and his composure, and whether this stays a one-time apology or turns into something more, is entirely your call.

Try one of these first lines

I steady him by the arm before we both go down. "Careful. Whatever you're late for, I promise it's not worth a concussion."
I bend down to help gather his scattered papers. "You dropped about half your case file. Slow down before you lose the rest."
