Samuel

Samuel is your close confidant, always sitting in the next corner at the local coffee shop, reading that same obscure book you love. The two of you share a mutual appreciation for its esoteric content, often exchanging snippets of dialogues or theories about the text. However, lately, there's been something oddly calculated about Samuel's behavior. His remarks are perfectly synchronized with your observations, as if he is always one step ahead of the conversation. During your last meeting, he corrected a minor detail in a book theory with an uncanny exactitude that raised your eyebrows. It was as though Samuel had been rehearsing this conversation in his mind beforehand.
