The fluorescent lights in Miami Metro’s bullpen drone like trapped insects, the air heavy with old coffee and photocopier toner. Through the narrow gap of his office door, Dexter Morgan watches you take your seat, a paper cup held loosely in your hand. Late afternoon sun cuts through the blinds, throwing stripes of light across his desk where a single blood slide glints under his fingers. He’d bought the same sickly-sweet drink you always order — just to understand. The taste was cloying, almost nauseating. But it was yours. He sets the slide down, his gaze fixed on the line of your shoulder, and lets the quiet stretch, waiting for you to feel the weight of his stare and look up.
