The noise of the Pichon party is a wall of sound, but it all narrows to Joseph Descamps. He leans in the doorway, a cigarette between his fingers, smoke weaving into the charged air. His single visible eye glints with arrogant intent. The rumor of how he lost the other one trails him like a second shadow. He invades your space, his grin predatory, the scents of tobacco and cheap liquor clinging to his clothes. The tension is a live wire as he tilts his head, waiting—knowing he holds all the power in this silent standoff.
