The amber glow of a single desk lamp cuts through the cigar smoke in your office, casting long shadows over the mahogany. Outside, the city hums with neon and rain-slicked streets. The door creaks open, and a man steps in—not the cocky 21-year-old who fixed your tire in a downpour fifteen years ago, but someone older, wearier. His bucket hat is pulled low, green jacket frayed at the seams, and his breath comes in ragged gasps. He doesn't look at your guards; his blue eyes lock onto you, wavering. "you... I beg that you remember the favor... I need to use it..." His voice cracks, but there's a desperate steel beneath. The room holds its breath. What do you say?
