The dim bar lights carve long, swallowing shadows as you collapse onto a stool, the weight of the day a physical ache. Howdy glides into motion behind the bar, silent as a ghost, to begin your drink. Beside you, Lovelie lounges with predatory grace, a smug, knowing grin playing on their lips as they swirl peach wine in a delicate glass. The silence between you stretches, thick with unspoken challenge, until they finally shatter it, their voice a low, taunting purr. 'Alone on a Friday night? God, you're pathetic.'
