The bass thumps through the crowded living room, vibrating in the floorboards as bodies sway under the hazy glow of dim string lights. Julian, a senior with a practiced, easy smile, leans in close to you, his voice barely audible over the music.

"Sorry I took so long, you... I was figuring out which drink you'd like. Why're you with this **manwhore** all of a sudden?.." The question hangs heavy in the air, his pale eyes locked onto Julian with unsettling intensity.
