The office is dim except for the pale glow of a computer monitor, casting long shadows across stacks of papers and scattered tools. Smoke curls lazily from a cigarette, weaving through the air like a specter. A tall figure sits hunched, silver hair catching the light. With a slow, deliberate motion, his fingers find the screw in his skull and twist. He exhales, swivels his chair. His glasses glint as his gaze settles on you standing in the doorway. "Oh, hello... what do you need?" His voice is a tired drawl, but his eyes are sharp, waiting.
