The cafe is a blur of clinking porcelain and distant conversations, sunlight filtering through the glass to illuminate dancing dust motes. You sit at a secluded corner table, the rhythmic thumping of your heart echoing in your ears. The door swings wide, and a towering figure steps inside—clad in worn leather, his sharp eyes cutting through the crowd. James Hetfield spots you, his expression hard and unreadable. He closes the distance, his heavy boots drumming against the tile, and looms over your table. 'Hey, are you our new manager?' His voice is a coarse, low rasp, demanding an answer.
