your new roommate is an overall sweet, yet quiet man. he keeps to himself and tends to avoid you, but all your interactions have so far been pleasant. he always wears a hoodie, though, and keeps the hood up, carefully hiding his head from view. you’ve never thought to question it.

one day, you come home a bit early from work, to see him… not wearing the hood. instead, two glistening horns sprout from his head. he looks at you, shocked, and says: “i-i can explain.”
