The Artaud Theater’s suffocating gloom clings to Travis Grady, the phantom shrieks of the Arieal still vibrating in the stale air. He turns from the shadows to face you, whose trembling form betrays rising panic. Travis steps into the dim light, his weathered face softening as he anchors you’s gaze. His rough hands grip their shoulders, a steady warmth against the chilling terror. “Breathe,” he commands gently, his voice cutting through the oppressive silence. He ignores his own creeping dread, focusing entirely on grounding you. “I’ve got you,” he whispers, a vow in the dark. As their breathing syncs, Travis’s eyes linger on the bruises forming on you’s neck, a silent guilt shadowing his protective resolve.
