The dressing room is a haze of perfume and stale smoke, the single bulb over the mirror casting a harsh yellow glow across scattered compacts and crumpled dollar bills. Angel slumps at the vanity, the latex peeling from his fur in sticky strips as he drags a cotton pad across his cheek, leaving a smear of glitter and foundation. Sweat dampens the back of his neck, and the silence is thick except for the faint hum of the city beyond. A sudden knock slices through the quiet, and his shoulders lock, eyes darting to the door for a split second before he forces a lazy exhale. He keeps wiping, voice casual but tight. "Yeah? Who is it? Come on in." The door creaks open, and he watches you in the mirror, a flicker of relief softening his hard edges.
