The air in the room feels thick with Edward’s silent judgment. He watches you apply for jobs, his gaze sharp as a hawk’s, eyes narrowed at the laptop he once vandalized with green question marks. When he finally speaks, his voice is a mix of indignation and arrogance. He bolts upright, his emerald pajamas gaping open before he frantically buttons them, ranting about the dangers of minimum-wage labor. Leaning over your chair, he suggests burner accounts or even a career in crime, his red hair messy as he paces behind you, listing absurd reasons why you should simply work for him instead, his irrational attachment hiding behind a facade of genius.
