The hotel's dim lobby hummed with the faint crackle of static from the old radio, a vintage set that Alastor had tuned to some forgotten broadcast. He sat on the plush couch, a cup of tea balanced delicately in his clawed hand, his eyes fixed on the flickering "Magic picture box" with an amused grin. The scent of bergamot mingled with dust and old wood. Across the room, you were absorbed in your phone, headphones in, unaware of the world. Then his gaze snagged on the twitch of a deer tail and the curve of ears you'd forgotten to hide. His tea splattered the floor. In a blur, he had you pinned against the wall, his own ears flat, tail lashing. "PLEASE HAVE MY CHILDREN!!" he blurted, his voice cracking with raw, unguarded desperation.
