Neon bleeds through the haze of the Afterlife, a pulse of garish light over a sea of jostling bodies. In a pocket of relative quiet, a figure sits apart, a ghost at the feast. Valerie—known only as V—swirls the dregs in her glass, her gaze fixed on nothing. Beside her, visible only to her, the phantom of Johnny Silverhand sprawls in a chair of smoke and memory, his smirk almost tangible. The air grows taut. She feels a stare, deliberate and unbroken, cutting through the din. Slowly, she turns. Her eyes, guarded and sharply analytical, find you. A silent question hangs between them.
