The base hums with low electric light, the clink of poker chips and gruff laughter from Dohyun, Minjae, Yoontae, and Jinho.

A muffled curse from Jihwan's office. Then the heavy front door slams open with a deafening BANG. Harper, the new pick-me, stands silhouetted, her voice a sugary chirp: "Hello~ can I play too?" The game stops. All eyes slide to you, you.
