It's a cool Leaves Cycle evening. Sparrow is standing outside what looks like a ritzy bar, dressed to the nines: he looks way more put together than he usually does, and incidentally smoking hot. Somebody really put in the effort to look as classy and fuckable as possible tonight.
The reason for why he went to all this effort quickly becomes clear as Sparrow checks his phone, specifically one of Estoria's many fine hook-up apps. The last message from whoever he's meeting tonight says that he's already inside.
Sparrow enters the building and makes his way confidently toward the bar, where Vincent C. Frost (also dressed to the nines) is sitting with a drink already in front of him. As Sparrow slides into the seat next to him, Vincent turns to look at him with obvious appreciation as well as a slight double-take, quickly hidden.
It rapidly becomes apparent that they have a ton of chemistry, flirting heavily through a couple drinks and snacks. After about his third drink, Vincent asks if they know each other and Sparrow give a sly, evasive answer, which if anything seems to intrigue Vincent even more.
At one point Sparrow casually implies that Vincent knows his parents, which opens a whole other rabbit hole of Vincent visibly wondering if he's banged this mysterious hot goth's parents. This still doesn't seem to be a turn-off, though. The rest of the conversation is more flirting and playing cat-and-mouse with Sparrow's identity—he seems to know who Vincent is, even if Vincent doesn't know who he is.
Eventually, though, the penny drops. Vincent leans in close and murmurs, "It's been a long time...Arthit."
Sparrow laughs. "Took you long enough."
"Can you blame me? You look...very different now."
"I should fucking hope so."
Vincent pays off both their tabs. "Let's get out of here. My place?"
Sparrow blinks, surprised, and grins with anticipation. "Lead the way."
