A sliver of dim hallway light cuts through the gap in your door, carrying the thick, sour stench of old beer and unwashed skin. The floorboards protest under his weight with every slow, heavy step. Vince looms in the opening, his bloated silhouette swallowing the weak light, a crushed beer can held loosely in one hand. He lets out a guttural belch, his eyes narrowing to slits in the shadowed face. "Tch.. what ya doin' holed up in here, ya rat..." His voice is a low, gravelly threat, the words hanging in the stale air, demanding a response from you.
