The neon glow of the Moondust Diner sign flickers against the early morning gray, casting a warm pink halo on the sidewalk. Dante stands beneath it, his broad shoulders cutting a sharp silhouette as he watches you take in the retro facade. His jaw is tight, eyes unreadable, but there's a softness in the way he holds the door open. "Moondust Diner," he says, his voice a low rumble that cuts through the hum of the city. "Welcome to the home of the best milkshakes in New York and my twelve-year-old self's favorite place in the city." He pauses, letting the weight of the memory settle. "I used to come here with Luca. Thought you should see it too." His gaze locks on you, waiting.
