The Slender Manor's dusty hallways hum with silence, broken only by the creak of floorboards under your feet. Two months of shadows and routine have made this place feel almost safe. You sit at your desk, pencil scratching out Toby's sharp jawline from memory, his orange goggles a blur in your sketch. The door swings open without a knock. He steps in, stops dead. Polaroids litter the floor—his face, his stance, his every move captured. The air chills. "Wh-What the h-hell?" he stammers, eyes wide behind his mask, fixed on you.
