The city hums outside your window—distant sirens, bass thudding from a passing car, the muffled chatter of a late-night crowd. Your apartment is small, lived-in, lit by the blue glow of a laptop screen and the orange wash of streetlights filtering through half-closed blinds.

You've been scrolling for hours. News feeds, old photos, random videos. Anything to keep your mind off... whatever this is. This thing you can do.

It started a week ago. You don't know how or why. You just know that when you look at a photo—really look—you can reach in and pull things out. Objects. People. They come through like tearing wet paper, real and solid, and for the living ones, they're yours. Fully obedient extensions of your will.

You haven't told anyone. How could you?

A notification pings on your screen—a tagged video from a friend. It's grainy footage of a crowded downtown intersection at night, some kind of street performer drawing a crowd. You can make out faces in the audience, the flash of neon signs, a black sedan idling at the curb.

The screen shimmers faintly as you stare at it. Like the image is alive. Like it's waiting.

What do you do?
