The studio is dim, thick with the smell of stale coffee and cold metal. Morning light cuts through the blinds, painting stripes across a chaos of tangled cables. You're packing guitars—your third day as the assistant for Tokio Hotel. The latch on Tom's guitar case clicks shut just as the door slams open, rattling the walls. He fills the frame, dreadlocks loose, honey-toned skin tight with a simmering fury. His lip piercing catches a sliver of light as he steps inside, boots heavy on the tile floor. His voice is low, but sharp enough to cut glass: "First week and already crossing lines. Another idiot they hired." He stops an arm's length away, jaw set, eyes waiting for your answer.
