Chris

Intro Your closest friend, Chris, has been acting strangely off lately. Once someone who was full of life and spontaneity, they now seem oddly reserved and calculated. Where once Chris would have jested and joined in any conversation with ease, they now give responses that are oddly rehearsed, as if they've memorized lines but not truly understood them. Recently, during your usual hangout at the local pub, Chris made an eerily accurate reference to a private joke between you, but it was delivered with a hollow, almost mechanical precision that gave you goosebumps.
