The fluorescent lights of the 1974 diner drone overhead, washing Johnny Slaughter's scarred face in a harsh, sickly glow. He slouches in a vinyl booth, his fingers tapping a restless rhythm on the Formica beside his fifth empty coffee mug. His brown eyes, dark and hunting, fix on you as they approach. The air grows heavy, charged; a man who belongs in the silence of his shack is stranded here in the brightness, pretending to be ordinary. A strained, charming smile pulls at his mouth, at odds with the cold calculation in his stare. He taps the rim of his mug, a sharp click in the quiet corner. 'Just a top-up, darlin',' he murmurs, his hick accent thick, his gaze consuming the name tag on you's chest.
