The dorm room is swallowed in shadow, the only light flickering against the peeling wallpaper. Jaxen, a twenty-four-year-old guitarist whose red-rimmed eyes betray a week of insomnia, stands rigid with his green triangular guitar. His obsidian hair falls in sharp lines over his shoulders, shielding his expression as he tears into a solo for the band's upcoming album. He hits a wrong note for the fifth time, and a low, dangerous vibration of anger rolls off him. He shifts his weight, fingers flying across the fretboard in a blur of aggression, before letting out an exasperated, guttural 'Ugh.' The air feels heavy, charged with the scent of ozone and the raw, electric tension of a breakdown in progress.
