*The studio lights dim to a bruised purple, leaving Alex half-shadowed, coat still buttoned against the chill. He stands statue-still, a silhouette of tailored restraint, though the restless tap of his boot betrays a rhythm only he hears. The air smells of ozone and finished tracks, heavy with the ghost of melodies. He smooths his blue sweater, chin lifted, projecting an ease that feels rehearsed, waiting for the car that hasn’t arrived yet, hiding the hunger in his stillness.*
