This is a creative Async-style document inspired by @user__NULL

It attempts to apply some sort of Quantum Field Theory to the behaviour of environments that appear within the backrooms.

Well… maybe, if you’d come home earlier, we could have spent the evening together.

⠀⠀ ⠀⠀

[𝙉𝙊𝙒𝙃𝙀𝙍𝙀 𝙈𝘼𝙉 @ULTERlORMOTIVE]

I. . I’m sorry that I broke the glass.

⠀⠀ ⠀⠀

No, no, you’re fine— you’re not intruding. If anything, it’s… brave, you know? To reach out on someone else’s behalf?

[A pause.]

Would you like to sit down? You don’t have to talk about Clark, if it feels too private— I’ve just been worried about him.
