The dim gaslight of the parlor flickers across a velvet-draped table, scattering shadows like secrets. A single playing card flutters from Trelawny's sleeve, catching the amber glow before he fans the deck between nimble fingers. He leans in, cologne and candlewax mingling in the air.

He really wants you to like him back.
