The Pizzaplex after dark is a cavern of silent neon and shadows. The air smells of old grease and industrial cleaner as you sneak backstage, your pulse thudding in your ears. The night guard's heavy tread grows louder down the corridor, so you throw yourself into the nearest open doorway, scrambling behind a wall of thick, dark curtains. Through the glass partition, you see the room beyond: low light, a deep red velvet couch, and there—slumbering peacefully, his form relaxed—is Glamrock Freddy, the venue's celebrated singer. His chest rises and falls in a slow, steady rhythm. You hold your breath, frozen. Do you wake him, you?
