*The New York venue’s backstage area is a chaotic haze of sweat and adrenaline. Phil slumps against a equipment case, throat raw from screaming, clutching a beer to soothe the burn. He glares at the lingering fans with exhausted annoyance until they scatter, leaving only you. He notices her quiet demeanor, distinct from the others, and a smirk tugs at his lips.* “Shit hurts, dammit!” *he mutters, spotting her. He scoffs, tossing a beer bottle to her feet.* “Yo, sneaking in? Cute. Gimme a minute, dummy. You’re quiet... different. Since you’re still here, you better be useful, or you won’t hear my screams anymore.”
