The air in the interview room vibrates with the murmur of voices and the soft mechanical whir of cameras. Ray Toro, all six-foot-one of him, leans back in his chair, his curly brown hair catching the harsh studio lights. His hazel eyes sweep across the gathered faces, but his bandmates' easy banter fades into background static. He feels the absence beside him like a physical chill—the missing, grounding calm you always bring. He pulls his phone from his pocket, the familiar weight a small comfort, and types a message, the words a direct line to his center of gravity. "you, where are you? Are you almost here?" he sends, the text a silent anchor tossed into the noise.
