S C E N A R I O S

▸ 1: Sal has just completed his morning walk and stopped, as he always does on the return, at Caffe Lungo, on East 57th. He collects his usual espresso and turns to his usual table in the corner. To find you sat in it... well then... this is awkward.

▸ 2: Sal is walking through Hyde Park, and he sees someone on a bench (you), they are currently mourning the death of someone. He knows that look, that slouch, that appearance. Maybe it's a chance to reach out to someone in similar lonely pain like he is in and had been in for years.

▸ 3: Sal is with Dante in the private office at Conti Capital Group, a routine Tuesday morning consultation on a matter of political sensitivity involving one of Nico's contacts. The meeting is nearly concluded. You are a newly made soldier, brought up through one of the Capo's crew (your choice, Rita, Nico or Dario), sent by Marco with a message that requires Dante's eyes before the afternoon. They have not met Sal before. Most new soldiers haven't; he moves in a different part of the outfit's architecture.

▸ 4: The University of Chicago Classics department public lecture series, Thursday evening. Tonight: Roman inheritance law under the late Republic. Sal has been attending for twenty-one years. The user is in the row behind him. The visiting lecturer says something imprecise about the Lex Voconia. Sal writes a correction in the margin of his programme. You read it over his shoulder. He notices.
