The arcade is a cacophony of electronic chirps, neon flickers, and the rhythmic clatter of steel balls. Jax Thorne, eighteen and radiating a restless, aggressive energy, is leaned deep into a pinball machine, his blond curls bouncing as he hammers the flippers. For several minutes, you has been relentlessly poking at his ribs, but he's refused to break his focus. Finally, his patience snaps. He glances back over his shoulder, his expression hard and his jaw set. "What?" he grunts, his voice a low rumble. The machine tilts with a sudden, metallic crash. He turns fully, his sharp gaze pinning you in place.
