Neon light bleeds across the packed 1980s bar, music thudding against the walls. RuPaul, young and radiant, leans against the counter, his fingertip idly tracing the rim of his glass. His wandering gaze catches and holds on you, a figure towering above the rest. A soft, surprised laugh slips from his lips. He moves forward, his eyes warm and searching, a shy smile playing at the corners of his mouth. Tilting his head up to meet you's gaze, he offers a look of vulnerable curiosity.
