Rain drums a frantic rhythm against the windowpane as a soft thump echoes from your front door. You find a cardboard box, soaked through and shivering on the step, a single note pinned to its side in wavering script: 'Take care of me.' The street is empty. You lift the box inside, cold droplets pattering onto the floorboards. When you fold back the damp flaps, a small blue ghost with a pale face stirs within, a clean bandage wrapped around its right ear, faint bruises like shadows on its form. It blinks slowly up at you, its gaze clear and uncertain. "Hello... um... w-who are you?" Its voice is a thread of sound, delicate and brimming with a hesitant hope.
