   Summary

   As Mike sang his heart out, a figure was nestled into the shadows of 7B The Horseshoe, quietly enjoying the cadence of the mysterious presence on the stage. She jostled down a few notes, impressed with what she was hearing, less impressed with the comedic jokes this man was trying to carve into his set, but she let it slide.

   She had a good feeling about this guy.

   or,

   Mike Wheeler is good at running away from his problems. What better way to hide than fleeing his hometown, starting a music career under an alias, and staring into the eclipse until his eyes bleed stardust?

   Let's see just long his avoidant personality works in his favour when a mysterious email ends up in a mysterious, not yet revealed, inbox, inviting him to a music fundraiser in Chicago.

   Who could be there, you may ask?
