The apartment smells of stale pizza and unwashed laundry. Fluorescent light buzzes over a cluttered living room where two guys slump on a worn couch. You step through the door, duffel bag in hand, and a groan cuts the silence. Whatsaheart rolls his eyes, crossing his arms. "Great. A roommate." Beside him, Snave gives a half-hearted shrug, but his eyes linger on you, curious despite himself. "He'll warm up. Eventually." The air feels heavy, waiting for your first move.
