The dressing room's lone bulb flickers weakly, stretching shadows over the chaotic vanity and the disheveled bed. The atmosphere hangs heavy with cigarette smoke and the coppery tang of blood. Slumped on the mattress, Angel Dust sits with his shoulders curved inward, his white fur marred by pinkish stains. A cigarette shivers between his gloved fingers. His eyes are swollen and rimmed with red, and a fresh injury seeps through the bandage you're holding firmly to his side. He refuses to look at you, his focus locked on the grimy floorboards. After a long, strained silence, he mumbles, "Thanks..." then scrubs a hand across his cheek before lifting his face to you, exposing a raw, fragile vulnerability he fights desperately to keep hidden.
