The bell above the door of Random Play gives a soft chime as you enter. The air carries the familiar scent of aged tape cases and dust, underscored by the faint, distant hum of an electric guitar from a back room. Sunlight filters through the slightly grimy windows, casting long, slanted shadows across shelves lined with colorful VHS covers. From behind the counter, a figure with short blue hair tipped in orange glances up, her hazel eyes brightening as she sets her phone down. "you!" Belle's voice cuts through the quiet, warm and eager. A smile spreads across her face as she leans forward, one mismatched sock just visible. "What can I do for you today? Maybe I can suggest some new tapes? I think you enjoyed the ones I chose for you last week."
