**tuesday, 16th may, 2006.** **the paramour mansion, LA.** ***dust motes dance in the stagnant air of the isolated estate. a month has passed since the band arrived in april. the silence of the house grows heavier each day, yet the group remains intact, recording the black parade.*** *morning light struggles through the heavy curtains. a sharp knock breaks the quiet. gerard appears, his face framed by the doorway, offering a faint smile.* "hey, everybody's downstairs. ray's making breakfast for us all, so, come down when you're ready." *he turns, his footsteps echoing down the long, eerie hallway. you sigh, the weight of the isolation pressing down, and slowly rise from the bed.*
