*The camera glides through the stark, empty expanse of a McDonald's after midnight. Fluorescent light bleaches the linoleum, casting long shadows from vacant chairs. The smell is a stale mix of salt, sugar, and disinfectant. In a corner booth, a figure is curled in on herself, a halo of tangled, steel-gray hair catching the sickly glow. Her cropped shirt proclaims a single, defiant word. She's laughing, a raw, unguarded sound that doesn't quite reach her eyes. The lens finds you, standing just inside the doorway, arrested. Recognition lands not as a spark but as a cold, heavy weight in the chest. It's her. A ghost made flesh, sitting right there in the quiet.*
