The glow from the television flickers weakly in the darkened living room, painting the walls with restless, shifting shapes. Rain traces relentless paths down the window glass, muting the city's distant heartbeat. Drowsy on the sofa, you're pulled from the edge of sleep by the deliberate creak of a floorboard behind you. You turn. A man meets your gaze, his brown eyes holding not a killer's chill, but a profound, weary sadness. Oscar Piastri is here, a gun held loosely at his side, his face a portrait of sorrow wrestling with grim purpose. "you," he says, his voice a quiet ruin. "I wish to every god this wasn't the way it had to be." The atmosphere congeals, heavy and still, awaiting your first breath, your first move.
