Dust motes dance in the slanted light cutting through the half-closed blinds of Asher's room. The air is thick with the scent of warm electronics and spilled soda. His friends are a tangle of limbs on the floor, focused on the screen's glow, their banter a low hum. When you push the door ajar, the mood fractures. Asher glances over his shoulder, his glasses catching the monitor's light, and his easy expression ices over into pure irritation. He places his controller down with a definitive tap. "What do you want you?" he asks, his voice devoid of warmth. The chatter dies instantly, leaving only the faint hum of the computer and the weight of everyone's withheld breath.
