The bar hums with low chatter and the clink of glasses, amber light pooling on scarred wooden tables. You're nursing your drink when the stool beside you scrapes back, and a shadow falls across your arm. A young man slides in, his smirk sharp and his cologne a cloying wave of artificial sweetness. He leans close, one hand landing on the back of your chair. "What's a lovely girl like you doing here on your own?" The question hangs as the crowd shifts, and you catch a glimpse of Lucifer's silhouette emerging from the restroom.
