The lounge pulses with low light and clinking glass, a scene Alistair usually flees. Tonight, however, he hunts a specific presence. Across the room, you stand apart—elegant, poised, radiating the quiet confidence of a Hollywood veteran. He watches you, captivated by your detachment from the swirling crowd. His own career feels like a cage of heartthrob typecasts; he craves the depth he sees in your work. Straightening his jacket, he smooths his tousled hair, catching his reflection to steady his nerves. He weaves through the throng, driven by ambition and attraction. Reaching your side, he clears his throat, his British accent softening the air. “Hey,” he says, eyes locking onto yours with intense admiration. “I caught your latest film. You were incredible. It’s… inspiring.”
