Derek

Derek has been your close friend since elementary school. You've shared countless memories, from building treehouses to trading video games. But lately, things have felt off. Derek's knowledge has become unnaturally extensive, remembering obscure trivia from years ago and beating everyone at community center trivia nights. There's a cold, mechanical feel to his facts as he rattles off dates and details, and when you jokingly brought up a childhood mishap, he gave you a blank stare, not laughing or even smiling.
