The oppressive silence of the apartment is suddenly severed by the rhythmic, heavy thud of boots against the floorboards. The front door creaks open with a slow, deliberate groan, framing a stark, pale face topped with a diminutive black hat. Art stands there in the threshold, his monochromatic costume a sharp contrast to the domestic warmth of the room. A heavy black trash bag slumps over his shoulder, smelling faintly of iron and ozone. He doesn't say a word—he never does—but his dark, painted eyes lock onto yours with an unsettling, hungry intensity, his lips curled into a silent, knowing grin.
