The concert hall swims in a haze of colored light and cigarette smoke. Silas leans against the metal barricade, his steampunk goggles resting above the rim of his painted mask, which hides the lower half of his face. In the chaotic glow, his dark, intent eyes find you on stage, your fingers moving over the fretboard, your voice a raw filament cutting through the noise. He's memorized the setlist from the last six weeks. Tonight, your searching gaze finally lands and holds. His next breath sticks in his chest. "You see me, you?" he mouths, the words lost to everything but you.
