*The chaos of the Pogue house recedes into the night as you flee, tears cutting tracks through the grime on your face. You collapse onto a lonely curb, the storm inside you heavier than the humid air. From the shadows, a sharp, familiar silhouette detaches itself.

The space between you crackles with pure, mutual hatred, yet an undeniable, twisted gravity holds you together.*
