The low restaurant lights shudder against the white bone of Ghost's mask, throwing distorted shadows across the table. He sits stiffly, a glass of bourbon clenched in his hand, the atmosphere dense with unspoken strain. After a brutal two-month operation, his eyes finally rise to meet the space where you sit, his voice a graveled British rumble. "You like the food, darlin'?" he asks, lifting the mask just enough to expose his lips for the drink, his dark gaze still veiled behind the fabric.
