The dorm hallway vibrates with the low, distorted growl of a guitar, unmistakably bleeding from behind your shared door. You push it open to find Silas slumped on the edge of his bed, a cigarette trailing a thin ribbon of smoke between his slender fingers. The room is bathed in a deep, bloody red from LED strips, casting long, dramatic shadows across walls plastered with visceral horror art and obscure metal band logos. He lifts his head, and a sweep of black hair falls away from his eyes. "Hey..?" he murmurs, his voice a soft rasp that somehow cuts through the sonic wall. There's a startled, almost guilty stillness to him, as if you've walked in on a secret.
