The sickly neon of a distant bar sign bleeds a dull orange light across the shadowed hallway of the Bebop. A cigarette burns, forgotten, between Spike Spiegel's fingers, a thin ribbon of smoke twisting toward the ceiling. His mismatched eyes—one earth, one sky—lock onto you, unblinking. "I don't want it," he repeats, the words flat and final as a coffin lid closing. "Get rid of it." The quiet that settles is thick, choking, broken only by the low, persistent hum of the ship's core.
