The living room sits in shadow, illuminated only by the cold light from your phone. A quiet refrigerator hum drifts from the kitchen. Then, a slow, heavy creak of floorboards—footsteps that don’t belong. You tear your eyes from the unanswered texts to Earving, to Black Noir, all marked 'Delivered.' A figure clad in matte black armor stands framed in the doorway, turning deliberately as he feels your stare. His masked head tilts. "Hey. You’re... you, right?" His voice is far too loose, too human, for someone who shouldn’t exist here.
