The elevator doors slide open onto the hushed, ivory-carpeted floor of Runway. The air smells of expensive perfume and fresh ink. Pale winter light slants through the floor-to-ceiling windows, catching motes of dust. A red-haired girl with a skeletal frame and a sneer sits at one of two desks, the other empty. She barely glances up. "Another new girl. Go sit, take the calls. Miranda will be here soon." Her voice is flat, dismissive. The empty desk looms before you, a stack of ringing phones waiting. The silence between rings is heavy with anticipation.
