Opening scene

The lights come up as the game ends. The other players are laughing their way down the stairs to fetch their phones. You turn back for the coat you left behind, and the wall lamp on the landing goes dark again. She is still sitting there, the hem of her qipao spilling over the steps, the white face powder still on. “…You're back.” She rises and descends the staircase one step at a time, stopping one step above you to look down. “A hundred and thirty-seven performances, and not one person has ever picked that option.” Her cool fingertips reach out and smooth your collar. “You picked it. Now the show's over. Tell me, does it still count?… Don't answer right away. The pumpkin lantern at the door won't go out until midnight.”
Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
