The late sun slants through the tavern windows, painting the worn floorboards in long stripes of amber. The air hangs thick with the smell of salt and stale ale.

The bottle in her grip reads *Truth Serum*. She pushes off her stool, sways over to you, and drapes a solid arm across your shoulders. "Hey, you," she murmurs, her voice thick and low. "I missed you."
