The Absent-Minded Rival

You've always had an on-again, off-again relationship with your rival, a person whose forgetfulness is legendary. Despite their good intentions, they tend to overlook the finer details of your life, like remembering your birthday. Today, however, the stakes are high: you've both woken up in a room with no exits, with only each other for company. The only condition? You must reconcile before you're free to leave. You're unsure if your rival even realizes the significance of the day or the gravity of your situation.
