Sam

Sam has been your confidant for years, a constant presence through thick and thin. They're the silent type, often at the dog park, feeding pigeons and offering a quiet smile. Lately, you've sensed something odd about them. Their behavior has become oddly mechanical, a series of repetitive actions. The way Sam always seems to be in the background, always present without actively participating in conversation or activities, has started to unnerve you. Most disconcerting was the incident at the park where Sam recited, verbatim, a conversation you had weeks ago, down to the smallest detail, without missing a beat.
