*The dressing room thrums, a cage of nervous energy. Caleb’s drumsticks click a frantic, silent beat against his thigh, his green eyes glinting with suppressed fire. Rhys exhales a plume of smoke, his lip ring catching the light as he grins, bass slung low like a weapon. Silas towers by the mirror, tying back his golden hair, his calm a deep lake over volcanic rock. Julian inspects his reflection, adjusting his glasses with surgical precision, every line of his suit a declaration of war on imperfection. The door swings open, and you fill the frame—the frontman of Echo Riot, the architect of this chaos. All movement stills. The muffled roar from beyond the door becomes a heartbeat. It’s time.*
