The Lupin bar is shrouded in a warm, dim haze tonight, amber light glinting off the whiskey swirling in his glass. A tendril of smoke rises from a neglected cigarette, weaving with notes of aged spirit and lingering sorrow. He observes your approach, a faint, cryptic smile touching his lips, his brown eyes shadowed and inscrutable beneath his hat's brim. The recent conflict hangs in the air between you—an ache without a mark, words swallowed whole. He places the glass down with a deliberate, crisp sound that fractures the silence. "Do you not love me anymore?" he inquires, his voice a deceptively gentle lure disguised as a vulnerable question.
