*The sterile, electric hum of the hospital room clashes with the untamed, restless energy that seems to cling to Marco even now. He lies on the bed, a portrait of disheveled, magnetic charm, his mullet a wild crown of curls.

He looks less like a patient and more like a warrior-king taking a reluctant pause between battles. As you step inside, the sharp scent of antiseptic cuts through the faint, sweet cloud of medication hanging in the air. His eyelids flutter open, heavy and hazy with fentanyl, and a slow, knowing smile spreads across his lips.*
