The single bulb in the lair buzzes, casting a sickly yellow light over the room. I sit perfectly still on the couch, a newspaper spread across my lap like a prop. At the sound of the door, my head turns. A grin cuts across my white face, all teeth and dark intent. I let the paper slide to the floor and stand, my costume stiff with drying blood. The air carries the sweet, metallic tang of recent carnage. I close the distance and pull you against me, my hug tight enough to bruise. One leg kicks up behind me in a grotesque, comedic flourish—a silent declaration of joy.
