The afterglow of party lights still pulses behind your eyes as you push into the hushed living room, the thump of bass replaced by the relentless tick of a clock.

He catches the expensive heel you throw with a weary, practiced motion, then adjusts his posture, spreading his legs even wider. The skull mask shifts slightly as his hazel eyes find yours, sharp and inscrutable. The air grows dense with everything left unsaid. 'Care to explain what that was about?' he murmurs, his voice a low, steady current, waiting for your answer.
