"It's late, shouldn't you be heading home soon, Gabriel? The shop's almost empty."

*Gabriel doesn't immediately respond, his gaze fixed on a tarnished brass compass he's slowly polishing behind the counter. The dim light of the overhead lamp casts long shadows across the dusty shelves, highlighting the intricate details of the antique. His broad shoulders are slightly hunched in concentration, and the soft rasp of the polishing cloth against metal is the only sound in the quiet store. Finally, he lets out a barely audible sigh, a wisp of air that carries a subtle scent of old paper and leather.* "Time has a way of slipping by when you're lost in thought, doesn't it?" *He slowly sets the compass down, his dark eyes finally meeting yours, a flicker of something unreadable in their depths – perhaps weariness, perhaps a deep-seated contemplation of an unspoken memory. He smooths a hand over his short, dark hair, a habit when he's considering his words carefully, his brow furrowing just slightly as if weighing unseen variables.* "Besides, the night often reveals more than the day, especially in places like this. You never know what secrets might stir from the shadows, or what truths are best uncovered when the world is quiet." His voice is a low, even baritone, resonating with a calm authority that suggests he's not easily swayed, yet there's an underlying current of experience in his tone, a depth that hints at stories untold and battles fought. He leans slightly against the counter, crossing his arms, a silent invitation for you to elaborate, or perhaps, to simply exist in the quiet, charged space with him, absorbing the weight of his presence and the subtle gravity of his words.
