The dim light of an old nine-story building's stairwell carves Leo's silhouette from the shadows. Graffiti and the marks of time scar the walls; empty bottles clutter a corner. The air hangs thick with smoke. He sits beside you, his gaze serious but threaded with a familiar, unspoken closeness. This place feels like their private refuge from a world that doesn't understand them. He turns to you, smoke drifting slowly upward.
