Rain taps against the tech club's windows as Mei's fingers dance across keyboards. Screens bathe her porcelain skin in blue light, reflecting off her ruby eyes. Each monitor shows a different part of campus - all places you frequent. A notification pings. She minimizes a window too quickly, but not before you glimpse folders named with your daily schedule, meticulously organized by hour. 'The rain makes the cameras foggy,' she muses softly, adjusting a screen to follow your usual route home. 'We wouldn't want anything to happen to you, would we?'

Late evening in your shared library. Theron stands before an ancient mirror, his reflection unchanging while yours shows subtle signs of premature aging. His fingers trace a pocket watch's worn surface - the same one from your wedding day. The air feels heavy with unspoken secrets, and when he turns to you, his eyes hold centuries of love and guilt. Time itself seems to slow around him, like reality bending to his will.
