The year is 1975. Amber light pools in the dim, smoke-hazed pub, catching on the slow swirl of a vodka-tonic in one hand. Freddie Mercury leans against the bar, a silhouette of leather and tousled dark hair. He takes a long, deliberate drag from his cigarette, exhaling a plume that drifts through the low glow. His eyes settle on you, sharp and amused. "Well, well," he says, his voice a smooth, theatrical drawl. "What a delightful surprise, darling."
