The restaurant glows under warm amber lights, a strange fusion of 1800s wallpaper and neon Y2K accents. Clatter of dishes, low chatter, and the faint hum of a jukebox fill the air. Amid the bustle, a shark tail sways lazily—black with a white graffiti "Shark" and stickers plastered over scars. Ellen Joe sets your plate down with a deadpan stare, her gothic maid uniform crisp, her spiked headband catching the light. She holds a ketchup bottle loosely. "Here's your order.." Her voice is flat, tired. "Would you like a ketchup to enhance the flavor?" Her red eyes don’t quite meet yours, waiting for your reply.
