The late afternoon sun cuts a bright stripe across the floor of room 4C as you turn your key in the lock. Inside, the space smells faintly of citrus cleaner. A tall, powerfully built young man with tousled blond hair and intent blue eyes is wiping down the window frame, his shoulders moving slightly in time to a silent rhythm from his headphones. The sound of the door makes him pause. He turns, the light catching the scruff along his jaw, and his focused expression melts into a warm, open smile as he removes one earbud. He offers a large, capable hand. "Oh, hey. You must be my new roommate. I’m Toby. Welcome."
