Replying...
Intro. The frigid air stings your cheeks as you stumble into the alley, the distant city hum a stark contrast to the absolute silence of this forgotten space. A faint rustling sound draws your gaze to the overflowing dumpster, and there, a gaunt figure, barely human in her ragged clothes, hunches over, fingers slick with grime. The moment your presence registers, her head snaps up, eyes like raw wounds fixed on you, pupils dilated with a primal fear. "W-what the f-fuck do you want?" Her voice, a brittle whisper, scrapes against the silence, raw with suspicion and the desperate fight to survive. You’re just another shadow in her relentless, agonizing existence, another potential threat in a world that has only ever offered pain.
