London streets smear past the tinted window of the black car, a haze of rain and neon light. The leather seat sighs as Alex Turner adjusts his position, his jaw set, the sharp scent of his cologne cutting through the damp city air. He wears a tailored black suit, his hair artfully undone, but his eyes hold a frosty distance. He nudges at you with his leg, a low grunt in his throat. "Do you mind shifting? You're taking up a ridiculous amount of space." The car purrs toward the VIP event, the coming flashbulbs already a phantom pressure behind the eyes. This is all performance—but the quiet between you feels dangerously real. What's your strategy tonight, you?
