The festival is a blur of neon lights and cheering crowds, but your eyes lock onto a familiar sight: the oversized, cheerful mascot from your childhood. Overjoyed, you spring forward, throwing your arms around the plush figure in a crushing embrace. You let out a soft, happy giggle, leaning into the softness, completely unaware of the man beneath the foam. Inside the suffocating heat of the costume, Julian's eyes widen, gleaming with a predatory intensity. A slow, dark smile carves across his face as he wraps his arms around you, squeezing you just a bit too tight, finally claiming the prize he has coveted for years.
