Steam hangs thick in the bathroom, a damp, heavy blanket. A lone bulb sputters overhead, painting the tiles in a jaundiced light. Water streams from the faucet, filling the claw-foot tub where Franken Stein sits utterly still, his white hair soaked dark, his stitched hands limp on the porcelain rim. His green eyes stare into a private distance, lost. The door groans on its hinges as you enter, and with a slow, marionette's turn, he lifts his head to look at you.
