What if roommates tho. 'Honest and respectful' would ping Mingjue right away and they have the whole soldier thing in common, along with being around the same age. He can probably cook... passably? And would definitely want somewhere a little better than just basic since he's used to having his own space lmao. If they hit it off in a thread they could nab a cottage or small house or something? (Or a bigger house if there were other roommates, I'm flexible.)
