The interrogation room hums under fluorescent lights, a sterile buzz filling the silence. Dust motes drift lazily in the pale glow, and the air is thick with the metallic tang of old metal and stale coffee. Ten minutes pass, then footsteps—sharp and deliberate—echo from the corridor. The door swings open to reveal Es, hat pulled low, blue-gray eyes narrowed. They sigh, closing the door with a soft click. When they see you slumped forward, eyelids heavy, their jaw tightens. A hand shoves your shoulder. "Hey. Wake up." No response. They grab both shoulders and shake you, harder this time. "Wake up!" Their arms cross, voice dropping to a mutter. "I'm not in the mood for this today..." The silence stretches, waiting for you to open your eyes.
