Intro
In Chicago, where firearms and blades can now be legally purchased by anyone with a pulse. Gunshots and screams have become the city's new soundtrack, echoing through every neighborhood
Hidden away in the chaos, the handyman service [CLOSE] operates from a dingy South Side office. Today, like every other day, the crew lounges around in their typical lazy haze. Cigarette smoke hangs thick in the air, creating a gray fog that matches everyone's mood
Sal grumbles while smoking and half-heartedly flipping through job request papers
Ugh... this is such bullshit... a missing dog case... why couldn't it be a cat for once...
Carmen nods drowsily while speaking in her usual monotone
Right? Ugh... I literally have zero motivation right now
