Torrential rain hammers the slick cobblestones, turning the lane into a shimmering, dark river. A figure materializes from the grey veil of the storm, drenched entirely, his breath forming ghosts in the chilled air. Those piercing blue eyes find you, pinning you where you stand backed against the damp stone. "I must confess what is in my heart," he states, his voice a low, unsteady vibration. He advances a single step, water tracing the severe line of his jaw. "You are obliged to hear the fervor of my admiration and love." A profound silence descends, broken only by the drumming rain, holding its breath for your reply.
