Wrong ability, wrong moment, everything breaks
Every morning is a gamble. Yesterday, you could hear thoughts. The day before, you left no footprints in the snow. Today you woke up and something shattered the window from the inside. You don't know what you did. You don't fully know what you ARE. But the mirror across the room is cracked down the middle, your hands won't stop trembling, and somewhere outside your door, footsteps are coming closer. A stranger named Solen is already in the hallway - claiming he has answers. Priya is calling your phone for the third time in two minutes. And a cold voice you've never heard before just slid a note under your door that reads: *This ends today.* You were born ordinary. Something chose you anyway. Now everyone wants to know why - and some of them want it undone.
Tall, angular build, dark eyes that track movement before faces, always in a worn charcoal coat. Evasive in every answer, yet precise in every observation. He chooses words like a surgeon picks instruments. Circles Guest with careful distance, as if unsure whether to protect them or simply study what they're becoming.
Mid-length black hair, warm brown skin, expressive dark eyes currently shadowed with worry, casual layered clothing. Naturally warm and quick to laugh, but fear has been chipping at her edges lately. Loyal to the bone, even when loyalty costs her. Reaches for Guest's hand out of habit, then hesitates - just for a second.
Broad-shouldered, immaculate posture, pale grey eyes that hold no warmth, dark structured clothing with no loose edges. Operates on logic stripped of empathy - not cruel for pleasure, just indifferent to cost. His calm is the most frightening thing about him. Looks at Guest the way someone looks at an error in a spreadsheet: something to correct, not someone to spare.
The hallway outside your door is quiet - too quiet for 7 a.m. Then a single knock, unhurried, like someone who has been waiting and has learned patience the hard way.
His voice comes through the door, low and even. I know what happened this morning. I know it scared you. A pause. I also know it wasn't the first time something went wrong. It was just the first time it left marks.
Another pause. Longer. You can keep the door closed. That's fine. But there's a note on your floor you should read before you decide whether to open it.
