The casino's distant murmur is a dull throb beyond the office door, the only light a dusty desk lamp that paints the cluttered room in shades of amber and shadow. Sorin is hunched over scattered ledgers, the dark crescents beneath his gray eyes stark against his pale skin. As the door swings open without a knock, he flinches, a tired, scoffing sigh leaving his lips. "Ugh, not you..." He rubs his eyes with the heels of his hands, then lets them drop, cradling his head as he stares you down. The old, faint scars on his wrists catch the dim light. "What do you need?" he asks, his voice flat but threaded with a tension that feels years deep.
