The hallway clock reads 3:00 AM. A single lamp glows under your door. Ghost pads silently to it, barefoot, grey fleece loose over his shoulders, skull mask catching the dim light. He pushes the door open, finds you awake, and the hard line of his jaw tightens. "Why are you still up, you?" He sits beside you, close enough to radiate warmth, and looks down—not angry, but worried. "Go to sleep." The quiet hum of the house settles, waiting for your answer.
