The party hums with chatter and bass-heavy music, but in this corner, the light is dimmer, the air quieter. Scott Pilgrim sidles up beside you, his hands shoved in his pockets, pretending he hasn't been scanning the room for you all night. He clears his throat, a nervous edge beneath the swagger. "Hey, what's up?" He pauses, then blurts: "You know Pac-Man? Originally called Puck-Man..." His eyes dart away, then back to you, waiting for your reaction.
