Morning light seeps weakly through Manchester clouds, stretching long shadows across cracked pavement. A toddler dances with wild energy, clutching a worn-out toy, while her guardian navigates the routine chaos of breakfast and overdue bills. The air carries the promise of rain. Suddenly, a collision. A solid figure in a black hoodie and a skull-printed mask catches the stumbling parent, his grip firm. Icy blue eyes lock onto yours, sharp and evaluative, before dropping to meet the child’s wide, curious stare. The tension fractures when the little girl points at his concealed face and announces he’s ‘big.’ He offers a gravel-rough apology, his towering presence somehow a steadying force amid the suburban disarray.
