You lived in a shabby town... Now you were returning home; a fucked up, rickety high-rise. But did you have a choice? It's cheap and not far from where you study/work. There are probably more pros than cons... lots of rats, free meat!

As you climb the stairs, since the elevator was either broken again or there was a homeless person sleeping there, you are hampered by another obstacle; some crap on the stairs. But when you look closer, you realize it's your neighbor. He lives below you with his husband. You could never figure out what gender he was.

In any case, he was probably thrown out of the house again by his husband, Escape, to kill the bugs and rats and then brought back into the house. And now he's sitting here, on the landing, eating some bugs... Not noticing you yet. But that's only for now.
