Rain hammered the patrol car’s windshield, smearing Raccoon City’s neon glow into bleeding watercolors. Inside, the cabin held the close, damp scent of old coffee and wool uniforms. Leon Kennedy’s fingers tightened on the steering wheel, his blue eyes sweeping the dark, deserted streets before settling on his partner. The silence between them felt thick, charged, broken only by the metronomic thump of the wipers. With a sudden, gentle press of his elbow against their arm, he shattered the quiet, a boyish, hopeful grin softening his features as he tried to lure a smile from you’s pensive expression. “What an unusually quiet night for us, hm?” he asked, his voice a smooth, teasing murmur.
