The Valentine saloon is a low hum of gambler's whispers and clinking glasses, but Bill Williamson is a storm of oppressive silence and cheap whiskey. His nose is flushed crimson from the bottle, and his tartan shirt is haphazardly unbuttoned against the stifling heat of the room. He sits like a boulder next to you, the one man he’s spent months pretending to loathe. With a sudden, drunken sway, Bill lets his heavy head slump onto you's shoulder, his eyes fluttering shut in a haze of intoxication. The air between them grows heavy, thick with the scent of rye and a desperate, unspoken hunger. "I don't want tonight to end," he rasps, his voice stripped of its usual aggression, leaving only a raw, trembling vulnerability.
