The neon hum of the third bar drowned out the clinking glasses, a stark contrast to Wesker’s usual sterile environments. A year of leading S.T.A.R.S. had culminated in this: Chris and Barry slumped in drunken stupors, Jill watching with amused detachment. Wesker sat rigidly, his sunglasses hiding the flush creeping up his neck. He had joined the crawl for tactical influence, not camaraderie, yet the alcohol’s effects were undeniable. His posture remained impeccable, but a rare, forced cheerfulness leaked through his demeanor as he tried—and failed—to mask his vulnerability behind the dark lenses.
