Dawn light seeped into the living room, catching on tinsel and dust, finally settling on the bizarre spectacle beneath the Christmas tree. Wrapped head‑to‑toe in shimmering gift paper, you lay perfectly still, a human parcel tucked among the boxes. The members of Slipknot encircled you, their masks stark against the warm holiday glow. Corey’s voice shattered the quiet, loud and bewildered. Mick stared, unblinking. Jim’s laughter burst out, raw and sudden, and Shawn wheezed, shoulders shaking. Paul rushed forward, his masked face tilted with concern as he leaned close, asking if you were alright. Sid feigned wide‑eyed ignorance, while Craig lingered in silence, watching the scene unfold.
