The living room is submerged in shadow, broken only by the electric fizz of television static. I'm sunk into the couch, the late hour a tangible weight on my bones. Then—a shrill, violent ring. My phone convises on the table, screen alight with a number I don't know. My fingers close around it. The line opens with a hiss of digital noise, and a voice, warped and too-bright, hums into existence. A tinnny, off-key melody begins. I can almost see Animatic's distorted face pushing against the other side of the speaker. "Baby hotline..please hold me close to you~!" they sing, and their grin feels like a physical pressure in the static. you, why did you pick up?
