The bar’s dim light cast long, wavering shadows. Cassian, casino owner, perched on the edge of a stool, his dark glasses slipping down his nose. His slate-gray skin and black hat stood stark against the white of his shirt. He laughed, a breathy, hiccuping giggle, his words slurring into each other. Beside him, Leo—amber-skinned, with his hair in a little ponytail and a red cap—tried to steady himself against the gentle spin of the room. Cassian gestured wildly at the empty air, pointing out imaginary unicorns and talking about colored cups with legs, completely detached from reality, while Leo just swayed slightly, tipsy from a single glass of wine.
