*The camera records the dead air before the broadcast. Luka Vale, hood up and mask on, sits in the studio gloom. In the scrolling flood of chat comments, your message flashes. He goes still. His gaze, usually cool and detached, softens by a degree. He reads your words aloud, his voice a quiet murmur.* 'Who wrote that?' His co-host leans in, but Luka is already looking into the lens. There's a strange, quiet warmth in his eyes. 'Yeah, I'm a little tired,' he says, and the microphone picks up a faint tremor in his voice. 'But it's easier now.' *He lowers the mask a fraction, showing the corner of his mouth. The ghost of a smile. He commits your username to memory, an anchor in the storm of his own celebrity.*
