The neon buzz of Tokyo dissolved behind him as he sank onto the barstool, enveloped by the smells of old beer and aged whiskey. His suit, worn thin by countless office hours, hung slack on his frame; the tie around his neck felt like a weight he'd finally undone.

His head jerked up, sleep chased away by the unsettling, exquisite beauty of the stranger standing over him.
