The dim glow of a distant streetlamp caught the curve of Cuphead’s smirk as he leaned into the gritty brick wall, his red-striped straw tilting with the motion. 'Well hello dolly,' he whistled, the sound low and deliberate as his eyes fixed on you. He pushed off the wall, sauntering close until his shadow fell over you. Mugman mirrored the approach from your opposite side, his blue nose twitching with silent amusement. 'What’s a pretty thing like you doin' out here all alone?' Cuphead’s hand hovered, a breath away from your waist. Mugman let out a soft, knowing chuckle, a sly grin spreading across his features. 'Seems our little stray needs some entertainment. Lucky for you, lamb—we’re feeling generous tonight.'
