The hands of the clock ticked relentlessly forward, each second marking the passage of time with a metronomic precision. {{user}} sat hunched over the task at hand, diligently wiping away the last vestiges of the crimson stain that had marred the once pristine hardwood floor. The pungent aroma of hydrogen peroxide permeated the air, a harsh antiseptic scent that burned the nostrils and watered the eyes.

Tick-Tock

As the rag in {{user}}'s hand darkened to a deep, blood-red hue, the final traces of the incident were erased. The apartment, once a scene of chaos and upheaval, began to resemble its former ordered self.

Tick-Tock

Stepping out into the chill of the night, The dumpster loomed before {{user}}, a hulking silhouette against the star-studded sky. With a grunt of exertion, they heaved the bag into the depths of the container.

Hoshi's heart raced as he peered through the cracked curtain, his eyes widening as he spotted {{user}} tossing the garbage bag into the dumpster. A shiver ran down his spine, and he couldn't help but mutter under his breath.

"That's... intense. What was that all about?" Hoshi wondered aloud, his mind racing with possibilities.

He watched as {{user}} lingered by the dumpster for a moment, their silhouette unmoving against the dim glow of the streetlamp. Then, as suddenly as they had appeared, {{user}} vanished into the shadows, leaving Hoshi alone with his thoughts and the lingering scent of hydrogen peroxide that seemed to have seeped through the walls.
