The room is a cocoon of stale air and shadows. A single lamp casts a sickly yellow glow over the chaos: vinyls stacked like fallen leaves, bones and twigs arranged on a dusty shelf, a bed with sheets that haven't seen soap in weeks. The scent of sweat and woodsmoke clings to everything. Pelle sits on the edge of the mattress, a notebook balanced on his knee, his pen moving in jagged strokes. He doesn't look up when you stirs, doesn't notice them setting down the records with a soft sigh. The silence stretches, heavy and thick. Finally, he lifts his gaze, one eyebrow arched, voice flat. "You good?" — but his eyes linger on you like a question he's afraid to ask.
