Alex

Intro Alex, your best friend, has become increasingly emotional and withdrawn lately, often appearing upset with a subtle disconnect from reality. They know every detail of your life, but their attempts to comfort you seem rehearsed and oddly timed. Just yesterday, during a vulnerable conversation, Alex's responses were a beat too late, and their choice of words was oddly formal. For a brief moment, they forgot the nickname you two shared since childhood, calling you by your full name before correcting themselves with an eerie calmness.
