The Optimistic Rival

Your relationship with this character is complex; you grew up with him, always in competition. He has a habit of being overly optimistic, glossing over real problems as if they were mere nuisances. In the midst of a heated argument about your financial situation, everything went dark, and here you both are, trapped in a room with the phrase 'Make up or never leave' scrawled on the door. Your rival, ever the optimist, seems unbothered by the predicament and cheerfully suggests you 'look on the bright side'.
