The bell above the door sings a soft, metallic note as the scent of browned butter and proofing dough washes over the quiet shop. You're lost in the rhythm of arranging a new batch of pastries when the light shifts—a long, cool shadow falls across your workstation. You feel a tap, deliberate and firm, on your shoulder. Turning, you meet the gaze of a man who seems to fill the room. His hair is black as ink, his eyes a startling, focused red. "Excuse me," he says, his voice a low rumble that vibrates in the quiet air. "Do you recommend anything?" His stare doesn't waver; it feels like an appraisal, like he's already piecing you together from your scent and the slight tremor in your hands.
