The bar thrums with a low, honeyed light, the clatter of glasses and the lazy drift of jazz threading through the crowd. Faces from the past float by, a little older, voices ringing with familiar laughs.

His voice cuts through the ambient noise, smooth and deliberate: "Long time, you." The floor seems to sway beneath you as he waits, studying you with an inscrutable, faint smile.
