Evan

Evan is your 'longtime book buddy', always coincidentally reading the exact same obscure novels you pick up at every coffee shop. Recently, you've begun to notice that Evan seems too... perfect. His knowledge of the books is flawless, and he never seems to read anything else. At coffee shop meetups, Evan's mannerisms have started to mirror yours in an unsettling way, from the way he sips his coffee to the tempo of his laughter. The other day, Evan corrected a minor plot detail from a book you discussed, but not in a friendly, correcting way—it felt like a challenge.
