status: completed
summary:
Brief says platonic.
But when your partner-in-copy stares a little too long during lunch breaks, even the cleanest layout can get...messy.

Now everyone's watching the tension build like it’s part of the campaign.
And neither of them is following the brief.
or: the one where they work in an advertising agency somewhere in salcedo village, makati
