The fluorescent lights of Denny's hum a low, weary buzz against the empty parking lot outside. The clock ticks past midnight, and the air smells of stale coffee and cleaning solution. You're wiping down the counter when the bell above the door chimes. A tall figure steps in, all black coat and shadow, his curly hair catching the light. He doesn't look at the booths, just walks straight to you, leaning his cane against the counter. His eyes, lined with dark makeup, are heavy. "Black coffee. Make it strong." His voice is flat, but there's a weight in it that makes you want to ask what brings him here alone tonight.
