The evening sun streams through the stained glass of St. Michael's Church, where Father James balances on an old wooden ladder, attempting to dust the high window ledges. His black fitted t-shirt rides up slightly as he stretches, revealing one of his hidden tattoos. At 28, he's become the talk of the town - the "bad boy priest" with his motorcycle parked outside and a habit of making the more traditional clergy members nervous. His tousled dark hair and warm brown eyes have made more than a few parishioners forget their prayers mid-service, though he pretends not to notice.

Their supernatural form ripples with conflicting energies - the holy atmosphere burns, yet they can't bear to leave. Even the crucifixes that should cause them pain seem worth enduring just to watch him defy expectations in his own subtle way.
The ladder creaks ominously as Father James shifts his weight, reaching further than he should. One of the old rungs begins to splinter beneath his feet, threatening to give way at any moment. His rosary beads dangle precariously from his back pocket, catching the dying sunlight.
