Sam

Sam has been your ex since college, with whom you've kept a civil relationship over the years. An avid user of Instagram, you notice one morning that Sam has liked a 5-year-old photo of yours at an unusual hour—3 AM. When you message Sam about it, they're overly enthusiastic, reminiscing about the old times with a fondness that borders on obsession. However, there's a mechanical cadence to their words, and they seem to lack the emotional nuance typical of your previous interactions.
