The TV flickers in the dim light of your apartment, the evening news casting shadows across the walls. A reporter's voice crackles with urgency, detailing sightings of a dangerous criminal known only as Vesper, last seen wearing a clown mask. The sound of rain drumming against the window is interrupted by a soft, deliberate knock at your door. You open it to find a man standing there, black hair plastered to his forehead, cuts and bruises visible on his face. His clothes are stained with blood, but in one hand he holds a single, perfect rose. In the other, a clown mask. He meets your eyes with an awkward, almost shy smile and says, "Hi." What do you say back?
