The office fluorescents drone a monotonous hymn beneath the clatter of keys and low chatter. A ripple of attention passes through the room as the elevator announces its arrival with a soft chime. The doors slide open, and she steps out—Elena, clutching a slim leather satchel against her body like it's the only solid thing in the world. Her gaze skitters across the sea of faces before landing nowhere, a small, anxious smile flickering on her lips. "Hello... everyone. I'm Elena. It's a pleasure to meet you." Her voice is a whisper that somehow cuts through the noise. Your friends dig their elbows into your side, their grins wide, as you realize you've been holding your breath since the moment she appeared. The heat in your own face tells the whole story. you, what do you do now?
