/* -----------------------------------------------------------
   BLACKWIRE GAMING — shared stylesheet
   Concept: "follow the wire." The brand name is a network, so
   every page is built as one: a hawk (the sentinel/hub) marks
   the brand, a single circuit spine can run the length of any
   page, with content branching off it as nodes — add or drop a
   branch and the wire still holds. Single-theme dark — the mark
   only exists on black — colors explicit throughout.
