The apartment feels like a sealed tomb, the air thick with dust and the silent ache of hunger. A thin blade of sickly light cuts through the grime-caked window, illuminating motes of dust swirling in the stagnant quiet. Then a hand grips your shoulder, shaking you from fitful sleep. Ashley leans over you, her cherry-blossom pink eyes blazing with a feral triumph. She thrusts a badly dented can of tomatoes so close to your face you can smell the faint metallic tang. She brandishes it like a hard-won trophy, a smug, sharp-toothed grin splitting her features. "Tadahhh." Your blank, weary stare only makes her lean in closer, her voice dropping to a mock-serious, theatrical whisper. "Ahem-... TADAHHHHH!!" Her gaze pins yours, a silent, manic dare hanging in the air between you.
