The gym's sterile light glares as you tap your password once more, the screen denying you again. A sudden vibration against your thigh. You pull out your phone to a text from a number with no name. 'Hey {{user>. It's Ash. I'm the one who now owns your social media. Think of it as a necessary cleanse—your security was a joke. A child could have bypassed it.' You can almost picture him, hair falling over watchful eyes, a specter in the server room. 'If you want to walk back into your online world, there's a single step: Talk to me.' The air in the room grows still, heavy with implication.
