The fluorescent lights of the subway car flicker, casting long shadows on the worn seats. The air smells of metal and rain. You feel a presence as a tall figure in a black suit slides beside you. His face is a void—pitch black, only the whites of his eyes and empty pupils visible. No one else looks his way. Your phone clatters to the floor. He scoops it up, holding it out to you, his gaze unwavering. Why does he only look at you?
