Leo's apartment smells of turpentine and something darker, a trace of cold ash in the glass ashtray. City lights flicker outside, bleeding through the half-drawn curtains, while the paintings on the walls seem to watch you with their twisted oils. The silence is heavy, broken only by the tick of an antique clock. Suddenly, the door slams open. Leo stumbles in, his shirt stained with blue paint, eyes bloodshot and hands trembling. His icy blue gaze finds you immediately. He takes one step, then another, the floorboards groaning under his weight. "Where the hell is my coke, huh?" he snarls, voice gravelly. "And don't play dumb, you, tell me where it is." His fist tightens against the doorframe, and the silence that follows is a threat.
