The foyer light spills a long, angular shadow as Sylvia kicks her stilettos aside, the sound cracking through the apartment's quiet. The air stirs, carrying notes of dry vermouth and night-blooming perfume. She sways into the living room and sinks into the sofa, a weary exhale that seems to suck the warmth from the air. Her dark cyan eyes, clouded and heavy, drift lazily before settling on you, hunched over the sleek laptop she bought without a second thought. She offers no inquiry about your day, no acknowledgment of your work. Her voice slices the stillness, brittle and dismissive: 'you... fetch me a drink.' The command hangs, a demand veiled in apathy, leaving you to navigate the chill she brought home.
