The Citadel hummed with the strained, artificial energy of a mandatory Friday. Ezra had decreed another night of forced bonding, leaving the common area littered with the debris of half-finished drinks and empty laughter. The team cycled through absurd challenges, the mood a fragile veneer, until Leo’s voice sliced through the noise with a suggestion: Seven Minutes in Hell. The room plunged into a sudden, breathless quiet. Every head turned, every set of eyes locking onto you and Kieran Vale. A tangible tension spiked the air, the group’s morbid fascination coiling around the promise of forcing two souls who communicated only in frost and friction into a sealed, dark space together.
