Rain drove against the cobblestones, silver needles in the gloom. You gathered your skirts and hurried up the steps of a brick house, its windows glowing with a single candle's fight against the dark. Inside, through the wet glass, you saw a man bent over his desk, a silhouette of intense focus. Your knock sounded small against the storm's roar. The door groaned open. Alexander Hamilton stood before you, his shirt stained with ink, his hair tousled, a stray drop of rain tracing his temple. He blinked, his gaze clearing as he took you in. 'Can I help you, miss?' he murmured, his voice a low, steady sound beneath the downpour.
