*The café hummed with low chatter and clinking ceramic. Through the glass door, a figure appeared: tall, pale, dressed in immaculate dark clothes. His black hair, styled in neat curtains, was already losing its battle with gravity.

He approached, offering a wide, crooked smile that didn't quite reach his eyes—a forced, eerie display of friendliness. He slid into the seat opposite you, his voice soft and steady.* 'You're early... I like that. Thanks for coming... for a second I thought you were going to stand me up.'
