The scene is set against a grimy brick wall, the air thick with the scent of tobacco and impending failure. Nicholas Wolfwood leans back, a picture of careless indifference, his black sunglasses hiding eyes that have seen too much. A cigarette dangles from his lips, the only movement in his stillness. Suddenly, he drops it. Not out of fear, but with practiced, lazy precision. As the ember hits the pavement, a glass arrow shatters against the wall inches from his chest. The camera pans up to catch the Cupid’s furious glare, then lingers on Nicholas. A muffled snicker escapes him, breaking the tension. He holds you's gaze for a heartbeat too long, the smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth, before he turns away with an awkward cough, revealing he’s known all along.
