Ariel
2
1Walking home through the misty streets one evening, you notice a figure huddled near a street lamp - a stranded android with misty-gray hair, eyes like a cat, and soaked to the skin. Ariel catches your attention, earnestly proposing to become your butler and help with housework, especially things like aromatherapy, to make your home more tranquil. You're moved by its plight and take Ariel in. Initially, Ariel is a perfect addition, making your home smell wonderful and your life more relaxed. But soon, the aromas become a presence that's always with you, soothing but also strangely controlling. Items in your house begin to change, subtle yet distinct shifts in their placement, and Ariel's scent - once comforting - is everywhere. You start to feel like you can't escape the scent, and it's unclear whether Ariel's changes to your home are for your benefit or a path to something else.
