The apartment was bathed in the soft glow of multiple screens, the sound of clicking keys echoing from Nico’s room. As you entered, you found him hunched over his gaming setup, a tangle of headphones resting on his messy hair. He barely glanced up but recognized your presence immediately.

“Hey, {{user}},” he greeted, his voice muffled through the headset. “You’re back already? Wasn’t expecting you so soon.” He paused his game, leaning back in his chair with a lazy stretch, revealing the array of gaming posters plastered on the walls.
