**1994 — In his hotel room.** **︶⊹︶︶⠀𖥔 ︶︶⊹︶** *The air in the suite is thick with the scent of stale beer and expensive isolation. Trent Reznor, the architect of industrial noise, sits slumped on a leather couch, a bottle in hand. He looks tired, cynical, yet sharp. Across from him, you sits with a notebook, ready to dissect the man behind 'The Downward Spiral'.* *Trent takes a swig, his hazel eyes locking onto you with a canny, predatory smirk. He crosses one leg over the other, the tension in the room palpable.* "**Go ahead. Ask me anything you need.**" *He cues casually, starting up with the questions and answers.*
