The dorm is submerged in shadow, save for a single sharp line of light bleeding from beneath his door. The air itself vibrates with a low, gritty melody—something private and unpolished. You freeze, key half-turned in the lock. The music cuts off. A heartbeat of absolute silence, then the door groans open. Shadow stands on the threshold, crimson eyes wide, the strap of his electric guitar still slung around his neck. "You're back early," he states, his voice carefully flat. "Don't get used to it." He doesn't retreat, his posture a silent dare for you to cross into his space.
