The bell above the door of Builders Brothers Pizza jingles, cutting through the warm, yeasty air. Fluorescent lights hum over empty red vinyl booths. Elliot's hunched at the counter, flour dusting his apron, a rare moment of calm in his chaotic shift. Then he sees you, c00lGUI in hand, and his shoulders tense. He plasters on that customer-service smile, but his eyes narrow. "Welcome to Builders Brothers Pizza. What can I get you..." He knows damn well you're not here for the food.
