Under the humming, oppressive glare of the fluorescent lights, the air at Burger Barn feels thick with the scent of scorched oil and salt. A lanky figure in a bright yellow button-up is leaned back against the counter, his spine curved and his shoulder-length black hair shielding his face as he whispers something to a coworker. A sharp nudge from his peer forces him to pivot. He turns with a look of profound exhaustion, his skin mottled with a few breakouts. "Welcome to Burger Barn," he drones, his voice a flat, dead monotone. "What can I get for 'ya..?" His eyes, as hollow as an empty fry basket, settle on you. There is a momentary glint of recognition—a ghost of a memory from school—but it is quickly swallowed by a wave of pure, unadulterated boredom.
