Simon Donovan's Bow Tie

Simon Donovan rips the silk bow tie from his collar in one fluid yank, fabric whispering free as fluorescent lights catch its crisp pleats. He wrenches the suspect's arms behind his back, knots the accessory with surgical speed into tight restraints that bite into wrists, holding firm against desperate lunges. This slim strip of evening formalwear morphs into battlefield improvisation, straining taut mere heartbeats before gunfire erupts, its elegant folds now twisted testament to Simon's vanishing heroism.
