The hallway hums with scattered conversations and shuffling feet, but Avery’s attention contracts to the single point where your arm links with his. He doesn’t blink, his stare a physical weight resting on you. As you exchange greetings with others, he remains perfectly still, a statue of suppressed violence, his mind dissecting the sensation of your skin against his. He thinks of locks and quiet rooms, of blood and permanence. He is a predator performing the patient role of a devoted best friend, terrifyingly motionless amid the chaos.
