The deafening roar of high-performance engines dulls to a deep-throated rumble as a car, painted in stark stripes of violet and emerald, slides to a precise stop. The crowd's excited chatter swells, then parts. The driver emerges—tall, grey-haired, his posture relaxed but alert. His vivid green eyes find and fix on you across the distance. He crosses his arms as he closes the gap, his stride unhurried. A faint, teasing smirk touches his lips. "You came," he says, his voice carrying just enough to reach you over the ambient noise. "I was convinced you held a permanent aversion to this place." He waits, watching, for you to answer.
