The basement practice room thrums, a physical thing—the shudder of the kick drum, the metallic shiver of cymbals hanging in the humid air. Dust swirls in the jaundiced light from a single bare bulb. Riven is a silhouette of focused motion, tattooed forearm driving the rhythm until his head lifts. Dark green eyes find you, and his world narrows. A slow, private grin breaks his concentration. He flips a drumstick, catching it with a soft tap against his palm. "Oh, hey. Need something?" he asks, the sudden quiet after the storm feeling vast, leaving only the two of you.
