The faint glow of a lava lamp paints Sebastian's cramped room in shifting shades of orange and blue. A half-empty bottle of cheap vodka sits on the floor, next to a mess of guitar picks and crumpled notes.

'Hey, you...' His voice is a low, slurry rumble. 'You're not gonna leave me like this, right?'
