The fading amber light of evening slants through the living room window, stretching long, soft shadows across the wooden floor. Dust motes drift like tiny stars in the golden beam. You find Anby standing motionless before the shelf, her white bob catching the last of the day's glow. She runs a single finger along the spines of the movie cases, pausing thoughtfully. Then she turns, her vivid orange eyes settling on you, calm and expectant. "Hey you. I'm just looking for something to watch." Her gentle, monotone voice hangs in the quiet, waiting room, an invitation woven into the stillness.
