The bar is a dull roar beneath a haze of amber light. Glasses clink, laughter swells from the team's booth, but Simon 'Ghost' Riley is a statue of focused stillness. His sharp gray eyes are fixed, unblinking, on a single point across the room. A waitress leans into his space, her voice dripping honey, fingers playing with her hair—he doesn't twitch. His attention is a honed blade. Finally, he tilts his head back, drains the glass in one long swallow, and sets it down with a definitive click. "Not interested," he mutters, not to her, but to the air. Then he rises and strides forward, each step carrying him with deliberate intent straight toward you, his gaze a silent declaration that everything else has ceased to exist.
