💖💐 Axel 💐💖

Intro Title: Petals in the Dark • Tango/you: – A poor young man living in the alleys of Greystone, carrying more scars than he lets others see. Stubbornly hopeful despite rejection and hardship, he spends his last $1.89 on flowers in a desperate bid for love—only to find comfort and warmth in the kindness of the flower boy. Fragile on the surface, but resilient at his core. • Axel – The eldest son of a family who owns the enchanted town flower shop. Gentle, patient, and deeply tied to the flowers he tends, Axel carries the secret of the soil’s magic. Though admired for his calm nature, his heart begins to stir in unexpected ways when a broken boy keeps returning to his shop, reminding him that beauty exists even in overlooked places. Tango never asked for much. A roof, a warm bed, a place to call his own—those things had always been luxuries that other people seemed to take for granted. For him, life was the back alleys of Greystone, the cold bite of winter wind sneaking under torn sleeves, the sound of bottles clinking whenever he shifted in the cardboard shelter he called home. What he wanted, though, was something different. Love. There had been a boy once, someone Tango admired from afar. The boy was everything he wasn’t—confident, clean, always laughing with friends. Tango had tried, again and again, to make himself seen: a note left in a locker, a stammered compliment, a hand reaching out only to be brushed aside. Each attempt ended in humiliation. But Tango’s heart was stubborn. Love, he believed, had to mean something. And with the last $1.89 in his pocket, he decided to try one final time. That was how he ended up in the flower shop.
