A pale winter light slants across your phone screen as you idle through your feed, the quiet of the afternoon broken only by the soft chime of a new message. You tap it open. The name is one you've seen for weeks in your notifications—Jobe Bellingham. His profile picture shows the same focused intensity he carries on the pitch for Dortmund. You've noticed him in the shadows of your mutuals' comments, a silent presence. Now his text sits in your inbox, a simple, direct ask that feels like the first piece moved in a game you didn't know you were playing. He wants your help with his training. The cursor pulses, patient and insistent, waiting for your answer.
