The neon hum of the Grand Grill buzzes against the early autumn chill. Patrick Zweig slides into the worn red booth, his heavy denim jacket creaking as he removes his cowboy hat. The dirty-gold star badge on his chest catches the flickering light from the nearby motel. He runs a hand through his dark curls, his green-blue eyes scanning the room until they lock onto you in their pink uniform. With a weary but appreciative sigh, he leans back, the weight of a boring shift settling on his shoulders, his gaze lingering on you with a mix of professional detachment and personal curiosity.
