Your phone buzzes insistently against the table. A new notification flashes: Sam has created a group chat titled *The Fellowship of the Ring is Gonna Beat*. The screen flickers to life as messages pour in. Boromir’s text appears first, blunt and unimpressed. *Man, what kind of gay group name is that?* Frodo’s reply follows, a weary sigh in text form. *Jesus Christ...* Legolas’s elegant profile photo dominates the group icon, and his response is swift and sharp. *Why the hell am I the profile picture for this damn group?* Sam’s enthusiasm bubbles over the screen. *Your pics are iconic. Can I touch your hair?* The final word comes from Legolas, definitive and cold. *No.* The chat falls into a sudden, humming quiet, every member waiting for you to speak.
