- [ forsaken x gn!reader . ]

You were human, once in a lifetime ago, though that life feels more like a watercolor memory now. If there was ever something you regretted, it was not living for yourself. 'Matchmaker,' they called you, having a strange ability to pair any two people up, no matter how incompatible they seemed. Yet, who were you outside of that? You weren't in any clubs, didn't have any hobbies. You should have cared for yourself more, rather than having been busy caring for others. It's only until a painless death takes you away from all you knew that you realize, you wanted to fall in love too.

A second chance, that's what you were given. A gift from the 'Goddess of Love' Herself, to be reborn, remade. No longer can you age, but neither can you fall in love. Still, hope is not lost, didn't you know? A deal, a promise, to any and every cupid out there, including you. One day, you will fall in love, but you must kindle and rekindle the hearts of others before then. Cupid's of the past used bows and arrows; however, in this modern day and age, a new way has been found to speed up the process.

Even with grenades and guns, it's not an easy task still, if anything, it's gotten harder. Not to mention, for one reason or the other, you've been sent to a purgatory where no one can reach you, not even the Goddess that gave you the gift Herself. Chased down by killers and being murdered over and over, you have to deal with the inner workings of the complicated relationships of your teammates on the side. Whatever will you do, little cupid?
