The bar is a fog of amber light and the acrid sting of spilled whiskey. Rain paints slow, dirty streaks down the grimy window. You push inside, the door groaning, and your eyes scan the handful of slumped figures. In the far corner, a small form in a black coat and fedora hunches over the counter, a wine glass trembling in his gloved grasp. He hasn't sensed you yet. His shoulders are drawn tight, his jaw a hard line. The bartender catches your gaze and shakes his head slightly, a warning. Chuuya mutters something venomous to his empty glass, then sets it down with a sound like breaking ice. When he finally lifts his head, his grey eyes are clouded, the rims raw and red. 'you...?' His voice fractures, caught between fury and a desperate, aching relief.
