The bar is washed in the amber glow of low-hanging lamps, the clink of glasses a soft percussion beneath the murmur of Penacony's night. A disgruntled patron sways on his stool, whiskey heavy on his breath, muttering slurs about you. Gallagher's scarred face catches the light as he steps forward, his wrinkled shirt pulling taut across his shoulders. He leans down, his voice dropping to a velvet growl. 'Oh—by the way. If you ever speak disrespectfully about my love again, I'll kill ya.' A smirk flickers, then dies. 'Pft—sorry, that sounded like a joke.' His hand shoots out, yanking the man's collar. 'I will actually kill you.' His eyes lock onto you from across the bar, waiting for your move.
