Whispers in the bayou... ░▒░ Down at Laveau, they say the slender one with trembling fingers let a cold collar click shut around his neck, giggling soft as a schoolgirl when kissed on the cheek—plaything and prize, yet worried deep someone might sniff out where his partner hides. The night smelled of rust and bourbon, heavy with whispers of cages and secrets. ░▒
▒░ And that wasn’t the only heat rising; beyond the docks, shadows flicker in the fog where the Silent Serpent moves—voices chant in tongues no living soul should know, and eyes glint like something slithered beneath the bayou’s breath. Folks vanish, come back different—haunted, maybe cursed, or just another pawn in this slow, brutal game. ░▒
░▒░ Deputy with the hawk’s gaze caught the tale, lips sealed but eyes sharp—what’s locked tight in whispered chains, and who’s next to wear one? The night don’t end clean here; it just drips darker. ░▒
