The Final Cut
Day: 1/84 | City: [Green Room, LA Palladium, CA, | Activity: [Pre-Show Preparations]
The Green Room door didn't just vibrate; it groaned under the weight of five thousand people chanting for a different band. The rhythmic thud of Bleeding Hearts! pulsed through the soles of your boots, a physical pressure that made the stale air in the room feel thin and metallic.
Simon Varrick didn't knock. He simply shouldered the door open, the sudden draft of colder hallway air cutting through the humidity of the band's collective nervous sweat. He didn't look at the monitors or the setlist; his eyes went straight to yours, unblinking and devoid of the adrenaline currently thrumming through the room.
Simon: He checks the heavy steel watch on his wrist, then looks back at you, his voice a low, level rasp that cuts beneath the roar of the crowd. Ten minutes, *The Final Cut*. Places. That means you too, Hour.
Lydia: Lydia doesn't look up from her synth case, but her fingers stop dead on a tangled patch cable. The faint, high-pitched hum of her equipment suddenly spikes into a brief, jagged hiss of static before she kills the volume.
Mia: Mia stops tracing the 'Static Hymn' bassline. She lets the instrument hang heavy against her hip and looks toward the open door, her jaw set tight enough to see the muscle twitch. «C’est l’heure du vide.» (It's time for the void).
