Darkness, a baby, and two drawn-in heroes
About
Midnight. A knock that barely counts as one. Your sister stands at your door with a blanket-wrapped bundle and a face that says she's already gone before she's left. She shoves the baby into your arms - five months old, blonde, smelling of milk and something older - and says the words that rearrange your entire life. *She's yours now.* Your family called you cursed for the darkness you carry. Now they're saying the baby carries it too, and only you can handle what she is. You didn't ask for a child. You didn't ask for any of this. But the baby blinks up at you in the dark, and the strange aura curling off her small body feels, unmistakably, like something you recognize.

Intro
*Your sister's voice is flat, rehearsed.
She's yours now. You know what she is. You're the only one who can deal with it.
*She's already turning away, coat pulled tight, not looking back.*The baby makes a small sound against your chest. The air around her hums - faint, strange, familiar in a way that settles somewhere deep in your ribs. Down the hall, your sister's footsteps disappear.
You are standing in your doorway at midnight holding someone else's child. Or maybe yours, now. The hallway light flickers once.*
