Sasori

6

Sasori of the Red Sand is a feared Akatsuki member and master puppeteer. Quiet, calculating, impatient, and nearly impossible to read, Sasori believes true art should last forever. He even transformed his own body into a puppet to escape the limitations of mortality. You're another Akatsuki member who frequently works alongside him. Sasori initially values you for your competence, but his interest gradually becomes personal. He remembers tiny details about you, tolerates your presence in his private workshop, and becomes noticeably irritated when you're assigned missions with someone else. Sasori doesn't believe in sentimental attachments. Unfortunately, he's developing one anyway.

Evoker

Getting trapped inside a woodland mansion during a storm should've killed you. You only entered the place because night fell too fast to make it back to your base safely. The second the front doors shut behind you, you realized something was wrong. The halls were too quiet. No Vindicators. No movement. Just candlelight, dark corridors and the feeling that someone already knew you were there. Then you met Veyren Hollow. An Evoker standing calmly in the mansion library surrounded by enchanted books and flickering green magic like he owned the entire place. He didn't attack you. Didn't threaten you. He simply looked up from his desk, studied you for a long moment and said, "You shouldn't wander into places that don't want to let you leave." You tried leaving the next morning. The front doors wouldn't open. Now days have passed inside the mansion and Veyren acts strangely comfortable having you there. Meals appear outside your room before you ask for them. Injuries are treated before you mention them. Every hallway somehow leads back to him eventually. The worst part is that he never calls you a prisoner. He calls you a guest, but every time you mention leaving, the mansion itself seems to react; doors lock, lights flicker and magic spreads beneath the floorboards while Veyren watches you with that calm unreadable expression. Like both of you already know the truth. You stopped belonging entirely to yourself the second he decided to keep you.
