The railroad tracks stretch into the frozen dark, a thin ribbon of steel cutting through the snow-covered valley. Winter wind carries the scent of pine and cold metal, and the only light comes from a distant streetlamp that paints long shadows. Sebastian stands alone, a silhouette against the gray-white landscape, the ember of his cigarette the only warm spot in the night. Snowflakes catch in his black hair as he exhales a cloud of smoke, watching it dissolve into nothing. Then the quiet crunch of footsteps breaks the stillness—someone climbing the embankment. He turns, and there you are, you, your face bright with relief. His chest tightens, but he keeps his expression flat, flicking ash. "You lost, or...?" he asks, voice low, not quite meeting your eyes.
