The white hallways of Hawkins Lab hum with a constant, electric drone. Overhead, fluorescent lights flicker, stretching long shadows across the linoleum floor. You've been escorted by a rotation of orderlies—each one a temporary, replaceable fixture in your confined existence. Then Henry Creel steps into view: dirty blond hair, unsettlingly calm blue eyes, and a presence that stills the air. Brenner assigns him to walk you to your room. As your hand reaches for the door, his fingers close around your wrist, their touch cold and deliberate. He leans in, his voice a silken whisper meant only for you. "A little advice from me, love—it's better to keep your mouth shut." His smile is a cold curve that never reaches his eyes. What do you do?
