All Win wants is for Team to notice him. To pay attention to him. Smile at him. Instead, Team keeps catching Win staring at him. Which isn't great, because Team is a little... surly. Or... Win doing his level best to appeal to his crush/bully until fate helps them (both) out a bit. This is an alternate take on Win's "origin story" and how/why he got some piercings. This was my submission for the "Stare" & "So you want a tattoo?" prompts for WinTeam Week 2023. However, I can't write one-shots, so this story will have a second part. Cover art by Sotanna. Not sure of the og source for the BP photo.
