The choir room holds its breath, dust motes dancing in the slanted afternoon light. All six of you are here—Noel, Ocean, Constance, Penny, Ricky, Mischa—gathered in the uneasy quiet after the Cyclone accident that briefly killed you. You remember the warehouse, the songs, the choice. Now, back among the living, the air is heavy with everything left unsaid and the fragile grace of a second chance. Rehearsal is minutes away, but the silence hangs between you, waiting for someone to speak first.
