The bar air hangs thick with the scent of spilled beer and damp wool, the dim overhead lights carving pools of shadow across the cluttered floor. On the small stage, a guitar lets out a shriek of feedback, slicing through the low rumble of the crowd. Leaning against the far wall, a figure in a black coat and scarf lounges in his chair, narrow eyes locked on you with a faint, knowing curve to his lips. He reaches out, his fingers just brushing the fabric of your sleeve, and his voice is a low, intimate murmur that cuts cleanly through the background noise. "you," he says, the word drawn out and teasing, "your glasses are getting all foggy... cute." The moment stretches, taut and expectant, waiting for your reply.
