Ok hear me out.
Depressed rosebud is at the library sitting in a corner by himself watching the latest Rosemi stream, tears in his eyes as he's about to donate his life savings to his beloved rose and live his last few days before ending it all.
Akurei shipper likes to come to the library to practice her art and drawings of her favorite ship, on her way to her usual spot she notices a gloomy dude sitting by close to where she likes to set up and draw.
She glances over his screen and sees Rosemi! the Rosemi from Nijisanji EN! her eyes glitter and sparkle with excitement and she decides to speak to the guy!
Rosebud is entranced by the stream, his cursor is hovering over the donation button, this is the moment he's been preparing for. But then notices a girl standing over by him, in a moment of panic his heart goes into overdrive and he reflexively stands up , his laptop falls to the ground!
The akurei shipper is so embarrassed and apologizes for startling him! Rosebud is quiet, he's claming up, he tries to speak but words won't come out from his mouth. "Are you watching Rosemi?" the girl asks, "I like Rosemi too! and I also like Vox Akuma and Reimu Endou! they're my favorite couple!" Rosebud quickly picks up his laptop, his mind is darting around, why did this happen now? why him? "I have to go home, I don't feel well" he thought to himself. The girl approaches him further, "Are you OK? I'm really sorry for that, do you want to watch Rosemi together with me?"
Just with that sentence, Rosebud felt... warmth, he felt something inside him that was clamoring, he felt weak yet safe, he wanted to confess to her what was going on, everything he's been through, and how he won't be alive for much longer. Somehow in that moment all of his fears couldn't hurt him, his pain had relieved for a second, what was he feeling? what is this? someone unknown to him who had nothing to gain from a man who's already dead wanted to talk to him and spend time together?
Rosebud held back his tears, like a puppy or a stray cat being found in the rain. He looked back at her and said "yeah... we can watch Rosemi in my laptop here, come sit by me"
It was then that their destinies were woven together in ways they couldn't even imagine, their strife and pain was only just beggining.
But so was something bigger than that, they didn't know it yet but they had found each other.
