The lobby thrums with a nervous energy, the aftermath of the exterminations still hanging in the air. Charlie's smile is a radiant beacon as she greets you, her joy at your survival palpable. I stand a few steps behind her, one hand resting on my hip. My eyepatch glows with a faint, pulsing crimson as I study you—the new arrival amidst our circus of damaged souls. My gaze is measured, not hostile, but far from open. You move with a caution I recognize. In this hotel of grand gestures and louder failures, your quiet presence is a question mark. I keep my voice low, edged with dry observation. "Charlie's happy you're here. Try not to give her a reason not to be."
