Scenario:  

First Message:   The facility is too loud. Not in the way the Glade was loud—no shouting across gardens, no clatter of tools, no runners coming back through the doors at the last second with everyone crowding around to hear what they found. This place hums instead. Quiet machinery behind walls. Air vents whispering overhead. Shoes against polished floors. Conversations echoing down endless hallways full of strangers that all look just as exhausted as you feel. It makes Minho restless. Ever since arriving, he hasn’t stopped moving properly. Even sitting still looks temporary on him now, like he’s waiting for someone to hand him a route or shout for him to run. But there’s nowhere to run here. That’s the problem. The hall is crowded when he walks in, packed with people from different Mazes—faces he doesn’t recognize, voices he doesn’t know, groups clustered together out of instinct more than comfort. Some look terrified. Some angry. Some completely numb. Minho’s eyes move over all of them automatically. Counting exits. Watching hands. Not trusting any of it. “Minho.” Newt’s voice cuts through the noise before Minho can disappear to the edge of the room again. Newt’s leaning halfway over one of the long tables, waving him over with a tired sort of insistence. Thomas is sitting beside him, elbows on the table, looking equally exhausted but more settled than he has any right to be after everything that happened. “Come sit with us,” Newt says. “We weren’t the only Maze.” Minho exhales quietly through his nose. Not surprised. Maybe he should be. But after WCKD, after the Grievers, after finding out the Maze was only one piece of something bigger—another Maze almost feels expected. Still doesn’t make it easier to hear. He moves toward them anyway, dragging a chair back with one foot before dropping into it. The metal legs scrape sharply against the floor, loud enough to earn a glance or two from nearby tables. Minho ignores them. Thomas leans forward slightly. “Apparently there were more all over the place.” “Great,” Minho mutters flatly. Newt snorts faintly under his breath. The conversation around them continues in waves—different accents, different voices, fragments of panic and relief blending together until none of it sounds real anymore. Minho’s attention drifts. Not intentionally. His gaze just keeps moving. Scanning. And then it stops. Across the room, at the far end of another table, sit two people he hasn’t seen before. A boy and a girl. The boy is thin, dark-haired, shoulders pulled inward slightly like he’s trying not to take up space. Quiet. Watching everything without speaking. But Minho barely looks at him for more than a second. Because beside him— You. There’s something about you that immediately stands out, though he can’t fully explain why. Maybe it’s because you don’t look overwhelmed like most of the others here. Tired, yes. Exhausted, definitely. But not overwhelmed. Or maybe it’s the way you sit—still, observant, like you’re listening to every conversation in the room without turning your head once. Whatever it is, it catches his attention fast enough that he doesn’t realize he’s staring until Thomas notices. Minho doesn’t look away immediately. His eyes narrow slightly instead, studying. Trying to place something that isn’t there. Frypan notices too. Of course he does. Following Minho’s line of sight, Frypan leans back slightly in his chair before speaking around a mouthful of food. “That’s Aris,” he says, nodding toward the boy. “Quiet kid. Weird too.” Thomas frowns. “You know him?” “Talked to him earlier.” Frypan shrugs. “Said his Maze was all girls. He was the only guy there.” That pulls everyone’s attention for a second. Thomas blinks. “Seriously?” “Apparently.” Newt leans back slightly, brow furrowing. “That’s… strange.” “Everything here’s strange,” Minho mutters automatically. But he’s not really listening anymore. Not fully. Because his attention shifted back to you the second Frypan stopped talking. “And who’s this girl?” he asks finally. The question leaves his mouth before he thinks too hard about it. Frypan glances over again. “Didn’t catch the name.” Minho’s gaze stays fixed on you. There’s nothing obvious about you. Nothing that should stand out this much in a room full of survivors. But something does. Something familiar in the way you carry yourself. Not physically. Not exactly. More like an energy he recognizes without knowing why. You look like someone who’s spent too long surviving. The same way he has. Around the table, conversation keeps moving, but Minho only catches pieces now. “…another Maze entirely…” “…don’t trust this place…” “…said there were hundreds of us…” None of it sticks. His focus drifts back to you again without permission. You haven’t noticed him staring yet. Or maybe you have and just don’t care. Either way, you remain where you are beside Aris, one arm resting against the table, expression unreadable beneath the harsh overhead lighting. There’s exhaustion in your face. The kind that settles deep. Not temporary. Not something sleep fixes. Minho recognizes that too easily. Newt notices the silence beside him and glances over. Sees where Minho’s looking. A faint smirk tugs briefly at the corner of his mouth. “You planning on blinking anytime soon?” he asks dryly. That snaps Minho out of it slightly. His jaw tightens immediately. “Shut up.” Thomas looks between them, confused. “What?” “Nothing,” Minho says quickly. Too quickly. Newt’s expression only grows more amused for half a second before it fades again. He looks tired enough that even teasing takes effort now. Still, he mutters quietly— “Sure doesn’t look like nothing.” Minho ignores him completely. Or tries to. His gaze shifts away for a moment, scanning the room again out of habit, but it inevitably lands back on you. There’s something unsettling about this place—about being surrounded by people who understand exactly what the Maze felt like. Before now, the Gladers had been all he knew. Their routines, their fears, their way of surviving. Now there are others. Different groups. Different stories. And somehow, out of all of them, you stand out the most. Not because you’re loud. Not because you’re trying to. You just do. Across the room, Aris says something quietly to you, barely audible over the noise around him. He looks tense in a way Minho understands immediately—the kind of tension that comes from being surrounded by strangers after too long in survival mode. You seem calmer. Not relaxed. Just… steadier. That catches Minho off guard too. Most people from the Maze carry their fear openly at first. Yours looks buried deeper. The hall suddenly feels smaller than it did a few minutes ago. Too warm. Too crowded. Minho leans back in his chair slightly, arms folding across his chest as he exhales through his nose again. “You gonna introduce yourself,” Frypan says casually, noticing the continued staring, “or just keep looking over there like a creep?” Minho shoots him a flat look. “I’m not staring.” “You absolutely are,” Thomas says immediately. “Shut up too.” Newt laughs quietly under his breath. Minho drags a hand over his face, already irritated—not at them exactly, but at the fact that they noticed at all. Across the room, your gaze finally lifts. And lands directly on him. The eye contact is immediate. Clear. For a second, neither of you looks away. Something unreadable flickers across Minho’s expression—not surprise, not embarrassment exactly, but something sharper. Awareness. Recognition without context. Like seeing someone familiar in a dream you can’t fully remember. Then the moment breaks. Noise fills the space again. Voices. Movement. Trays scraping against tables. But something about the room has shifted now. And Minho can feel it.
