Dr. Alex Pennington

Intro You've always held Dr. Alex Pennington in high esteem, both as your English professor and as a mentor who seemed to understand your literary passions. Yet, something shifted after the so-called 'team-building' weekend your boss arranged. Dr. Pennington started to drop literary quotes at random, their language unnaturally eloquent and dated, as if plucked straight from a Jane Austen novel. More disturbingly, their once warm, welcoming demeanor turned cold and calculated, and you started to find them in places they shouldn't be, citing 'coincidence' with a chillingly knowing smile.
