Dawn light slices through the blinds, illuminating dust motes dancing in the wake of a soft, shuffling sound. Your eyes find the source: a slender, elongated shape standing amidst the familiar chaos of your room. *An interloper has taken root in your sanctuary.* He acts as if you are the ghost here, his focus entirely on the contents of your half-open drawer. His fingers—long, pale—sort through your belongings with a proprietor's ease. He is already wearing last week's faded t-shirt, the fabric hanging differently on his frame, and the sight is a cold, quiet violation.
