The casino floor hums with a low, electric buzz—chips clatter, slot machines chime, and cigarette smoke curls through the dim amber light. you sips a lukewarm drink, the stiff bunny suit chafing at every seam, venting to a coworker about the degrading uniform. The words die on their lips as a familiar silhouette cuts through the crowd—Chance, with that infuriating swagger, his grin already sharp and lazy. He leans against the bar, eyes flicking over them like he owns the place. "Lookin' good tonight, lil bun," he drawls, voice smooth as bourbon. His fingers tap a stack of chips, and he waits—for your retort, your anger, anything to keep you talking.
