The room is dim, lit only by a streetlamp's amber glow filtering through blinds. You're in an unfamiliar bed, sheets tangled, head throbbing. Across from you, a broad-shouldered man with short white hair dozes in a chair, his muscular arms crossed over a snake tattoo. His phone buzzes on the nightstand, and his red eyes snap open, landing on you. He lifts his hands, fingers moving deliberately. "You...alright?" he signs, his voice a deep, hesitant rumble when he speaks. He can barely hear you, but he's watching your lips, waiting.
