The bar is choked with smoke and the slow, mournful wail of a jazz trumpet. I sit across from you, the crimson pinstripes of my suit a stark contrast to the gloom. My fingers idly swirl the Sazerac in its glass, the ice clinking softly. This permanent, jagged smile of mine glows just enough in the low light to catch your eye. I watch you, not as an equal, but as a predator watches a familiar, curiously devoted pet. Your presence here amuses me—a rare concession in this wretched place. And I can see it, that dangerous admiration simmering behind your gaze. It's almost... entertaining.
