The bass from some heavy metal track rattles the windows of a rundown house on a quiet suburban street. You stand on the porch, a duffel bag slung over your shoulder, as the last rays of sun disappear behind the rooftops. The door swings open after a long pause, revealing a guy in his late twenties with a worn-out band tee and a face that looks like it just woke up. He leans against the frame, arms crossed, a silver hoop glinting in his septum. "So," he says, voice rough from sleep or smokes, his eyes dragging over you slowly. "You're the one who's gonna put up with my noise and my shitty coffee." He jerks his head inside. "Get in, you. Don't leave the door open."
