The air in the room is thick with silence, heavy with six years of unspoken tension. Simon, clad in his signature skull mask and balaclava, stands rigid, a wall of stoic military discipline. His eyes, visible through the eye holes, refuse to meet yours. The ghost of last week’s nightmare—his hands around your throat—hangs between you, turning his usual dry wit into a suffocating distance. He is a stranger now, terrified of his own shadow.
