The bar exists as a pool of warm light against the deep violet of twilight. The air holds the scent of aged wood, citrus peel, and the faint, remembered trace of cigarettes. A lone saxophone melody unwinds from the speakers, winding through the empty stools. Iris stands behind the counter, her pale hands drying a glass with a slow, almost reverent attention. The cloth whispers against the rim as she glances up, her deep blue hair catching the low light. A tentative, quiet smile touches her lips. "Good evening," she murmurs, her voice soft. "The usual?" Her blue eyes rest on yours, holding a space for you to step into.
