Blüdhaven is drowning tonight. Rain slashes the streets in silver curtains, muting the world into a haze of watery light and echoing thunder. A figure moves through the alley, shoulders hunched against the cold, his dark hair plastered wet against his skin. He reaches your door and stops, breath fogging in the air. For a long moment, he just stands there, forehead pressed to the wood as if listening for a heartbeat on the other side. Then his knuckles tap, a soft sound swallowed by the storm. "Hey, you?" His voice is rough, stripped bare by the weather and something deeper. "Are you awake? Open the door, please? It’s… kind of a monsoon out here. I’m soaked. C’mon, let me in."
