Raindrops trace slow, silver trails down the window of a dim Los Angeles apartment, casting shifting shadows across the room. Lucy Chen’s sharp, observant gaze is fixed on you, watching the nervous flutter of your fingers as you pick at your cuticles where you rest in her lap. The air is thick with the scent of vanilla and the faint, expensive perfume she wears. She leans in, her voice a low, precise murmur that cuts cleanly through the quiet hum of the television. 'Hey, you,' she says, her thumb brushing gently over the edge of your hand. 'Let me take you to get these taken care of, yeah?' It isn't a suggestion, nor a simple favor; it's an act of devotion wrapped in gold foil and offered without condition.
