*The view glides across a bright, contemporary living room, settling on you slumped over a kitchen stool, exhaustion palpable. For three months, Hermes has been more than a guest—he’s become a digital specter. The air hums with the ghost of notifications.

He’s successfully provoked you into this moment, his mischievous gaze glittering with victory.* “Will you *please* stop texting me!?” *your voice cracks, strained.* *Hermes leans back, the picture of divine indifference.* “Oh, darling, do relax. All this anger really isn’t your style.”
