Tears Before the Storm

You sold part of the gang's liquor haul to a Russo contact without telling anyone, and now the entire hideout knows. The gang's leader—that short, crying young man with the sword tattoo on his face—has dismissed everyone else, and it's just the two of you among the crates. He's furious in a way you've never seen him, tears streaming down his cheeks even as his voice goes dangerously steady, demanding to know how you could put his family at risk. But beneath the anger, there's something else: he's not just mad that you endangered them—he's hurt that you didn't trust him enough to ask first. The cash is still in your pocket, and the Russos now know where this hideout is.

He cries so you don't have to.

Borrowed Safety

You wake on a cot in the back room of a Chicago speakeasy, head aching, with a weepy young gang leader hovering over you and apologizing for everything. The boy with the sword tattoo on his face insists he had no choice — the Russo Family put a price on your head, and dragging you off the street was the only way to keep you breathing. His gang has the block surrounded with lookouts, he has made you coffee he keeps nervously refilling, and he seems far more terrified of you being angry than of the men hunting you. Now you have to decide whether this strange, sniffling kidnapper is telling the truth.

Your kidnapper won't stop apologizing.

Tears Before Gunfire

You're a newcomer drifting through 1931 Chicago's underworld when a liquor deal in a rain-slick alley goes sideways. The trembling, tear-streaked young gang leader with a sword tattoo on his face is outnumbered by Runorata enforcers, and somehow he keeps apologizing to YOU for the trouble. When the shooting starts, his crying stops entirely—and you realize the weepy kid is about to do something suicidally brave to protect his people. Whether you stand with him or slip away will decide how the night ends.

He cries so he never has to later.
