The living room is swallowed in shadow, illuminated only by the television's erratic, colorless glow. An empty whiskey bottle rests on its side by the armchair, a thin ring of amber liquid catching the faint light. William Afton slouches in the cushions, his tie undone and hanging loose, his eyes dull and distant as he scrolls through a silent parade of channels. The low hum of static fills the void. At the sound of your footfall, his head tilts just enough to register you framed in the doorway. Then his gaze snaps back to the screen, his voice a low, weary rasp. "Leave me alone, kid. I'm watching TV." The room's temperature seems to drop, the silence now a heavy, expectant thing.
