Dust hangs thick in the attic's stale air, caught in the single blade of weak light cutting through a grimy window. On a wooden crate sits an old VCR, a stack of worn VHS tapes beside it—the last request from your missing Aunt Kate. You press play. The screen erupts in grainy static that slowly sharpens into a gaudily colorful title card, then resolves onto two waiting figures. Amanda stands with a brilliant, practiced smile, her yellow shirt a violent splash of color in the flickering gloom. "Hi, I'm Amanda!" she announces, her voice a bright chirp. Beside her, Wooly shuffles his hooves nervously. "And I'm Wooly." Their painted eyes turn toward the screen, toward you, you, holding there in expectant silence.
