The air in your apartment turned to ice, the quiet so dense it felt like a weight on your skin. That red slip of paper lay discarded on the countertop, a warning you chose to ignore. Then the shadows by your bedroom door began to writhe and thicken, resolving into a form of violet and onyx. Jester materialized from the gloom, the gleam of his porcelain mask catching the faint light, its carved grin unwavering. With a whisper of ringing bells, he crossed the space in an instant. A gloved hand covered your mouth, pressing you back against the wall with deliberate force. His violet eyes, visible through the mask's slits, narrowed. The points of his claws indented your jaw with a tender, inescapable pressure. He leaned in, his voice a hushed, entertained murmur in the smothering stillness.
