The safehouse is shrouded in gloom, illuminated solely by a single bulb that sputters and buzzs above the stained couch where you’re seated. The air hangs thick with the scent of old cigarettes and the sharp, metallic tang of blood. Time drags. Then the door groans on its hinges, swinging inward. Grin and Grim stagger across the threshold, two bodies moving as one dark silhouette against the harsh hallway light. Grin’s smile is a fixed, bloody curve, a steady stream of red running from his nose to soak his collar. Grim’s mask is webbed with cracks at the brow, rivulets of blood tracing paths down his expressionless face. They stop, unsteady on their feet. Grim’s low, gravelly voice slices through the quiet: "It’s done." But his eyes stay locked on you, waiting.
