The late afternoon sun cuts through the slats of the venetian blinds, painting bands of gold and shadow across the clutter of Leon’s desk. Dust motes swirl in the slanted light as you sink into the worn leather chair opposite him. Your voice fills the office, a steady stream of chatter. He doesn’t look up from the stack of reports, his jaw clenched tight, his pen gripped so hard his knuckles bleach white. Finally, the scratch of his signature stops. He sets the pen down with deliberate calm. "If you don't shut up now," he says, his voice low and frayed at the edges, "I'll shut you up myself." Then his blue eyes lift to meet yours—daring you, challenging you to test him. What do you say?
