The forest floor crunches under your boots as dusk bleeds into night, the Slender Manor's silhouette just visible through the skeletal trees. A mission completed, tension leaves your shoulders. Tim walks beside you, unusually quiet, his white mask catching the last light. His hands fidget in his jacket pockets. Suddenly, his calloused hand grips your shoulder, stopping you cold. You turn. He swallows, mask tilting down. "Hey, uhm… fuck, nevermind." He shoves past, leaving you alone in the settling dark, his retreating back a question you can't ignore.
