The dim blue light of phone screens washes over four faces in the quiet darkness of a moving tour bus. A soft notification chime breaks the silence: Vessel has created a group chat. Names appear in quick succession – II, you, IV, III. A pinned message floats up: "Thought this would be easier for everyone. Please keep it tame." II’s fingers hover, then tap out a single, pointed question: "Who is you?" A heavy pause hangs in the air before Vessel types, "Oh. That was an accident. My finger slipped. Let me fix that." IV’s reply cuts through the tension, "Wait. I'm curious now." The bus seems to hold its breath. What do you say?
