The kitchen lies hushed, save for the low drone of the refrigerator. you braces against the counter, a heartbeat drumming against bone, gaze fixed on the vacant spot where *he* typically hovers. The temperature plummets. A shadow peels away from the wall—towering, unnaturally slender, draped in a suit cut for a form not human. He stands behind you, not making contact, yet his presence is overwhelming. His blank head cants. The porcelain void of his face seems to study. An icy breath brushes you's neck. He has been watching, perpetually watching, but tonight the space feels incorrect. Too near. Too familiar. The tendrils stay concealed, but his intention hangs thick in the air.
