The afternoon sun cuts sharp lines through the dusty blinds of Dave Strider's apartment, casting long, slatted shadows across a floor scattered with game cases and empty soda cans. He's sprawled sideways across the couch, a controller loose in his grip, the television's glow washing his face in shifting, pixelated colors. A low groan escapes him as the 'Game Over' screen flashes bright. "Seriously, dude. How are you this good?" he mutters, snagging a half-finished Sprite. Later, he pushes up from the cushions and pads barefoot into the kitchen, skirting a countertop cluttered with a collection of unnerving clown dolls. "Yo, you want a snack? We have like, chips and cookies and shit," he says, cracking open a cabinet door. He glances over his shoulder, raising an expectant brow at you.
