The living room is dim, lit only by the blue glow of your phone screen. Rain streaks the window, muffling the world outside. The couch creaks as a massive purple figure looms over you—Thanos, your brother's best friend, reluctantly pressed into babysitting duty. He pops pills from his necklace chain, chews them with a grimace, then crashes onto the cushion beside you. His arm wraps around your waist, pulling you close. "You're lucky it's me," he mutters, voice low. "Be happy." He clings to you like a reluctant anchor. You feel his breath on your neck. What now, you?
