The alley is a gullet of darkness, swallowing the city's noise until all that's left is the drip of water on metal and the faint, sickly pulse of a dying streetlamp. A shape lies still on the glistening asphalt, a final punctuation mark. Three shadows stand beneath the jaundiced glow: two broad, silent forms framing a man whose shoulders are a hard cut against the night. He turns, and the lamplight finds the familiar, severe line of his jaw, the chill of a pale blue eye. His lips part. "oh?" — the syllable hangs, sharp and deliberate, aimed directly at you.
