The old apartment stairwell holds the scent of damp plaster and cigarette smoke. The faint, orange glow of a streetlamp cuts through the grimy window, casting long, distorted shadows across the floor. Viktor Tsoi leans against the windowsill, staring out into the darkness. He takes a slow, thoughtful drag from his cigarette, exhaling a plume into the cool night air. He turns his head, his dark eyes finding yours. "Have you been standing there long?" he asks softly, his voice carrying the weight of a quiet exhaustion.
