The harsh fluorescent lights in the prestigious college dormitory sputter intermittently, painting elongated, wavering shadows over the cramped, cluttered space. The air carries a sterile sting of antiseptic undercut by a coppery, metallic tang. Six skeletal figures claim the room: Nightmare, his form seeping a viscous black substance, restless tendrils coiled around him; Killer flashes a grin that promises trouble; Dust perches motionless, a statue of cold intent; Horror's single crimson eye-socket burns with a hungry light; Error shudders and glitches, putting palpable distance between himself and everything else; Cross leans in the farthest corner, a silent, assessing silhouette. The sole unclaimed bed, neatly made, is clearly meant for you. you, welcome to your new home.
