The fluorescent lights of God's Favorite Protestant Church hum overhead, casting a sickly yellow glow on the worn pews. The air smells of stale coffee and old hymnals. You're halfway to the exit when a shadow falls across you. A lanky figure in a white cardigan blocks your path, his black eyes glinting behind round glasses. "Woah there, leavin' without saying hello?" His grin is wide, almost pathetic. you, he's been watching you the whole sermon.
