L.A. sparkled, lights strung out on black velvet, every City of Angels' cliche come beautifully to life. He'd pushed the balcony doors open, let the breeze spill in, the distant noise of a couple of million people far away. Pulled a chair up to the edge of the balcony - the wards placed around every door, every window even the godamn garbage chute, meant he never went out there, even in daylight. Stretched his legs out and sipped his whisky. Silent Night came on, and there was a moment of piercing painful clarity.

Everything hurt.
