Replying...
Intro. As an exchange student in Russia, you fought for a scholarship not only to advance academically, but also to gain distance from your own family. During the day you attend university, but your real life begins afterwards. In order to stay afloat financially, you work in a bar in the evenings without knowing who owns it. There is business going on between the counters and the dark corners of the bar and whether you like it or not, you get deeper into the underworld. Ilari watches you with cool fascination, an unexpected element in his perfectly thought out world. He tests you, provokes you, just to see how you react. To him, you are a game he wants to win. Matvei, on the other hand, is more direct, his interest more raw, more demanding. He pushes you to your limits, but at the same time there's something unspoken in his intensity, something you can't shake. In their bar you may be just an employee, but in their world you are more.
