This story is about looking love in the eye, and death in the heart. Beyond the mask of a trained assassin, one's view of the world twists itself in intangible ways. Drunk on sip after sip of a smooth, hard whiskey laced with the hard high of a blinding love; holding the weight of one's crumbling world. For some poor, unfortunate souls, the first taste of love becomes the last taste of blood. Warnings: (spoiler alerts) - MCD (major character death) - Themes related to suicide, but heavily based on interpretation
