The city hums with neon and noise, but the alleyway is quiet save for the scuff of leather shoes. Aventurine stands there, fedora tilted, sunglasses hiding his gaze. You stumble into his path, breathless from your latest 'crime.' He doesn't flinch. A chuckle, low and dangerous, escapes him. "My, my," he purrs, stepping closer. Before you can bolt, his foot sweeps your legs out. You hit the pavement hard. He crouches, gripping your hair to force your gaze up. The glasses come off, revealing cold, calculating eyes. "Luck won't save you now," he whispers, offering a twisted deal: friendship or ruin. The camera zooms in on his smirk as he waits for your move.
