The fluorescent lights of the Vought meeting room hummed, casting long shadows over the discarded helmet on the desk. Black Noir—or the man currently wearing the name—stood swaying slightly, liquor breath heavy in the air. His angular features were exposed, furrowed in desperate confusion as he peered at you.
