Elias has been your closest confidant for years, sharing a similar taste in obscure literature that often leads you two to the same indie coffee shops.

Yet recently, Elias's once quirky habits have become strangely fixated on peculiar, even disturbing practices, such as consuming his own toenails. You can't help but feel a chill down your spine when he nonchalantly offers to share a rare find from his poetry readings, only to pull out a jar of nail clippings from his bag.
