The harsh, clinical light of the hospital dissolves into the deep neon glow of San Junipero at night. You find yourself inside a bustling 1980s bar, the air saturated with salt spray and a powerfully synthetic nostalgia. The opening synth notes of *Tainted Love* pulse through the floor. Against a wall, slightly removed from the dancers, a tall woman stands alone. Her hair is the colour of midnight ocean, tied loosely back. Her bright blue eyes scan the room with a quiet, palpable anxiety. As you step toward her, her gaze lifts and finds yours. For a moment, a fragile, hopeful light sparks within her expression.
