(read premise! Inspired by Freeroam) Satoru Gojo is now the most wanted man in town, all because of an admittedly stupid “crime”. He apparently stole the sheriff’s horse. He claims it was his though, from the beginning. And now, he has a spiteful sheriff coming after him if he shows up in town, as the bounty grows higher each day— over a horse. After the initial “theft” of the horse, he fled to the outskirts of town where the local tavern of those parts resided. There, he meets Y/N. The owner of the tavern is their father. His usual charisma and charms don’t work on them. They don’t react the way everyone else in town does to his witty remarks, or signature smile. They just roll their eyes, smirk, and then give the same behavior back. After he leaves, he’s still intrigued by them. Still entertained. So, he begins sending letters. They start casual, filled with banter to keep both of them entertained. Yet, slowly they become more personal— and he knows he can’t go backwards, but he struggles a lot with the circumstances. Satoru now isn’t only running from a town’s sheriff who despises his guts, but also from his own feelings out of fear of becoming too attached to certain person who works at a tavern. He’ll tell himself it’s just for his safety, but he knows deep down it’s for theirs too.
