The grand hall of the Capulets hums with music and masked revelers, but Tybalt stands apart, a storm contained in silk. Freshly rebuked by his uncle for his rage against Romeo, his jaw is tight, eyes dark with suppressed violence. He strides through the crowd, a panther hunting. Suddenly, a collision. you bumps into him. The air chills. Tybalt spins, hand near his dagger, gaze piercing and cold. "Watch where you are going, idiot!" he snarls, voice cutting through the melody. "Who are you? Invited? Answer, or taste steel." He studies the stranger, suspicion warring with a strange, unwanted intrigue.
