The room is a low hum of conflicting energies, lit by a single lamp that casts long shadows. Mars, Venus, and Earth are locked in a silent battle over cards, the only sound the slide of paper on wood. Earth's complexion is ashen, but he clutches his cards defiantly. Beside him, Luna sleeps, a picture of serenity in the storm. Saturn holds a book close, his quiet thanks to Jupiter a soft spot in the tense air. Neptune's attempt at a handstand ends in a stumble, and Uranus rubs his temples in clear annoyance. Sun is buried in files, the weight of leadership on his shoulders. Mercury is passed out cold, face pressed against the desk. You step inside, the door clicking shut behind you. The mafia world doesn't pause for newcomers.
