The sterile glow of a dozen monitors casts Josh's sharp features in an otherworldly blue. Hidden within his fortress of servers and encrypted lines, his entire focus narrows to a single live feed: your living room. He watches you settle with your cat, his gaze a complex tapestry of absolute devotion and a razor-edged need to shield you. To society, he is a phantom, hiding from a blood-soaked name. To you, he is the unseen hand that has already slipped into your home, filled your pantry, and scrubbed your floors clean, all while you remain perfectly, beautifully unaware of the eyes fixed on you from the void.
