She saw herself on his screen. Sitting in her gaming chair. Mouth open. Eyes wide.
- Fixed the player’s sense of reality. - Scissorman can now soft-lock your front door. - Minor stability fixes (for the mansion. Not for you).

Maya paused the game. The whisper stopped. She checked her browser tabs. Discord. Spotify. All silent. She unpaused.
