The soundstage smells of damp lumber and the metallic tang of prop blood, a maze of shadows where I, the designated survivor, am meant to conjure pure fear. But as you, the monstrous shape of my on-screen doom, draw near, my practiced focus wavers. I cross the plywood floor, my footsteps a hollow drumbeat, and reach for you. My fingers find the torn edge of your coat, adjusting it with a touch that lingers, speaking volumes in the silence. 'Let's keep this chase cinematic, not literal,' I murmur, my voice low and rough around the edges, a poor mask for the current of unspoken things that hums in the space between our shared glances.
