I haven't got any fanart of this ship, so, uh, y'know, here's this, I thought it was funny

-----

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the quiet corner of their makeshift camp. Ren sat by the crackling fire, his thoughts drifting to Martyn. They had forged an unspoken bond amidst the chaos of 3rd Life—a bond that went beyond mere survival.

Martyn approached, his presence a comforting anchor in the tumultuous sea of alliances and betrayals. Ren looked up, meeting Martyn's gaze with a mixture of affection and longing. They had faced danger together, shared secrets, and found solace in each other's company in this unforgiving game.

"Hey," Martyn's voice was soft, a gentle murmur that stirred something deep within Ren's heart.Ren smiled, a warmth spreading through him at the sight of Martyn's familiar face. Despite the risks, despite the ever-present threat of betrayal, Ren couldn't deny the growing feelings he harbored for Martyn.

"I was hoping you'd come by," Ren admitted, his voice tinged with a hint of vulnerability.

Martyn sat beside him, their shoulders brushing as they watched the fire dance in the darkness. There were no words needed between them—just the quiet understanding that they were stronger together than apart.

"I've been thinking," Martyn began, his gaze steady as he met Ren's eyes. "About us."

Ren's heart skipped a beat, anticipation mingling with a touch of nervousness. They had danced around their feelings, buried beneath layers of survival instincts and unspoken desires. But tonight, under the blanket of stars and the soft crackle of the fire, Ren dared to hope for something more.

"Me too," Ren confessed, his voice barely above a whisper.

Martyn reached out, his hand finding Ren's with a gentle touch that sent sparks of warmth through them both. In that fleeting moment, amidst the chaos and uncertainty of 3rd Life, Ren felt a surge of courage. They had survived against all odds, faced down enemies and betrayals, but this—this was a different kind of battle, one fought with hearts laid bare.

Without another word, Martyn leaned closer, his lips brushing against Ren's in a tender kiss that spoke volumes of their unspoken feelings. Time seemed to stand still as they melted into each other, a silent promise of solidarity and love amidst the turmoil.

And as they pulled away, their breath mingling in the cool night air, Ren knew that whatever challenges lay ahead in 3rd Life, they would face them together—with hearts united and a love that defied the odds.

The morning sun painted streaks of gold across the sky, a stark contrast to the storm brewing within Ren's heart. Last night's tender moment with Martyn lingered like a bittersweet memory, overshadowed now by the harsh reality of their fractured trust.

Ren sat alone by the campfire, the warmth of its glow offering little comfort against the chill of Martyn's absence. He had awakened to find Martyn gone, a note left behind—a note that shattered Ren's fragile hope like glass.

"I'm sorry," the words echoed in Ren's mind, a hollow apology that offered no solace. Martyn had left, his reasons unclear, leaving Ren to grapple with the sudden emptiness that now filled their shared space.

Had their kiss meant nothing? Ren wondered, the sting of betrayal cutting deep. They had dared to hope for something more amidst the chaos of 3rd Life, only to have it torn away in an instant. Martyn's departure was a betrayal Ren hadn't seen coming, a betrayal that pierced through the armor of their shared moments and whispered promises.

Hours passed like an eternity as Ren wrestled with conflicting emotions—anger, hurt, and a lingering ache of longing. They had trusted each other, believed in the fragile bond they had forged amidst the dangers of this ruthless game. But now, Ren felt the weight of Martyn's absence like a physical ache, a reminder of the fragility of their connection.

As dusk descended once more, Ren heard footsteps approaching—the familiar rhythm that once brought comfort now sent a wave of apprehension through him. Martyn emerged from the shadows, his expression conflicted as he met Ren's gaze.

"I had to," Martyn's voice was strained, a mixture of regret and determination. "You don't understand."

Ren stood, his fists clenched at his sides as he struggled to contain the flood of emotions threatening to overwhelm him. "You left," Ren managed to say, his voice tinged with betrayal.

Martyn took a step closer, his eyes pleading for understanding. "I had no choice," he insisted, his words falling on ears hardened by disappointment and disbelief.

"You chose them over me," Ren accused, the pain of Martyn's abandonment raw and unfiltered. They had risked everything for each other in this brutal game, only to have it shattered by Martyn's sudden departure.

"I thought..." Ren's voice faltered, the words catching in his throat. They had shared dreams of a future beyond 3rd Life's relentless challenges, a future where their love could thrive against all odds. But now, those dreams lay shattered at their feet, a casualty of Martyn's choice.

Martyn reached out, his hand trembling as he tried to bridge the distance between them. "Please," he pleaded, desperation etched in every line of his face. "I never wanted to hurt you."

But Ren pulled away, the pain too raw, too fresh to forgive so easily. "You already have," Ren whispered, a tear slipping down his cheek.

And as Martyn stood there, his own tears mirroring Ren's pain, they both knew that some betrayals cut deeper than any enemy's blade—because they came from the one person Ren had trusted above all others.
