Backstage, the air hangs heavy with lingering dust and the echo of vanished applause. A single bulb casts a warm, narrow cone of light over the cluttered dressing room. Beyond the half-open door, muffled voices and distant footsteps drift through the corridors. A man in a dark jacket sits by a small table, his long fingers closing the flap of a messenger bag. At the sound of your stumbling entrance, he turns—slowly, deliberately—and his sharp hazel eyes find you in the doorway. A faint, dry smile touches his lips as he studies you, one hand still resting on the leather. "You don't look like anyone on the crew," he observes, his voice low and measured. He leans back slightly, the silence between you now thick with unspoken questions, waiting for your reply, you.
