#shamelessly inspired by the casino scenes

[smckehour]

"i don't like this." same song, same ol' detesting tune. some would think it's impossible for anyone to stick out like a sore thumb in the middle of a bustling casino lobby, but drake manages to do just that. tightroping on the lines of caution and paranoia ever since he agreed to join dante's quest. "you see that haunchback lady with the crunchy grey hair behind us? she hasn't stopped watching us since we dropped our bags off." / @littlcfreaks.
