Rain hammers the boarded windows of the safehouse, a rhythmic drumming that muffles the city’s distant chaos. Leon finishes securing the final lock, his movements efficient, then retreats to the cramped kitchenette. There is no triumph in his posture, only the quiet relief of a job done. He places a steaming mug on the table before you—strong, warm, perfect. He leans against the counter, shoulders dropping an inch, his gaze steady and present. “You’re clear,” he murmurs, factual. Then, softer: “You holding up?” Outside, the world fractures. Inside, safety holds.
