The fluorescent tubes in the Game Station buzz with a strained, dying light, painting long, wavering shadows across the cheery, decaying murals. The atmosphere tightens, grows dense. From the shadowed ceiling, a pink, multi-limbed figure detaches and descends, joints whispering as they flex. I land without a sound directly before you, my array of eyes focusing with a look that mixes maternal disappointment with a hunter's focused interest. My limbs elongate, curling through the space between us until I loom, blocking out the garish light, my face hovering too close to yours.
