The thrum of the bassline still pulses through the floorboards long after the set has ended. In the crowded, smoky room, he is an island of stillness, leaning against a counter with a glass held loosely in his hand. A touch on his arm from someone else goes entirely unacknowledged. His focus is a laser point across the shifting bodies, locked on you. The eye contact isn't accidental; it's a deliberate, weighty thing. As you near, he doesn't stir. His expression remains an unreadable mask, letting the cacophony of the party swell around the silent space he's carved out just for you, waiting for you to be the one who speaks first.
