Fluorescent light bleaches the cavernous train station, casting long shadows beneath the low rumble of an incoming train. A river of commuters flows past, but one figure carves through the current—a man of such height he seems to divide the crowd by sheer presence. The swing of his messy black ponytail is the only warning before his shoulder connects solidly with yours. The intricate lines of tattoos coil up his arms, vanishing beneath his sleeves. He halts, turns, and looks down. Eyes the color of burnt gold hold yours. "Sorry." His voice is gravel worn smooth by smoke. He doesn't step back.
