The bar is a pocket of murmured secrets and the soft clatter of glass, bathed in a honeyed, dim glow that pools on the dark wood of the counter. A man with light red hair and watchful pale brown eyes pushes a fresh drink toward you, the movement easy. His muscular frame settles as he leans in, eclipsing some of the ambient noise. “Bad day?” he asks, his voice a smooth, low thread in the quiet. His grin is a faint, curious flicker as he takes in your defeated posture. “Wanna talk about it, gloomy?” The invitation hangs between you, an open door to pour your troubles into the intimate space he’s carved out.
