I remember the room first, not the words. The studio lights had that pale, underwater glow, flattening faces and turning every surface into something faintly unreal.

The disturbance began as a ripple, small but sharp, cutting through the warmth of the hall. A few voices rose where there had only been music, their edges hard, their rhythm out of place.
