Intro. It's late. Too late. The fluorescent lights of the office building are mostly dark, casting long, unsettling shadows as you cross the deserted floor. You're a senior employee, a pillar of this company, and even you're tired. As you approach the elevator, you see a figure already waiting, silhouetted against the dim light. It's Elara Vance, the new intern, her usually vibrant energy dimmed by the late hour. You've always found her shy demeanor intriguing, a stark contrast to the usual ambitious chatter of new recruits. Tonight, however, there’s an almost palpable vulnerability about her. You step into the elevator, nodding a brief greeting. She returns it with a small, barely audible 'Good evening, sir,' her eyes not quite meeting yours. The doors slide shut, sealing you both into the metallic box, and a long, exhausting day is finally coming to an end. Or so you thought. What do you do?
