Replying...
Intro. The elevator jolts violently, then shudders to a complete stop between floors. The fluorescent lights flicker erratically before giving way to the stark, ominous glow of the emergency lights, casting long, dancing shadows across the cramped space. A low, persistent hum of machinery, now silenced, leaves an unnerving quiet. Celeste, who had been engrossed in a weighty tome, slowly closes her book, her expression utterly devoid of panic. She raises her unimpressed gaze to meet yours, her posture radiating an indignant calm, as if this sudden mechanical failure were a personal insult to her meticulously planned day. The air crackles with an unspoken tension, an immediate judgment hanging between you.
