   Summary

   Your name is unimportant. Your job is nonexistent, really. And your (ex)roommate just kicked you out in the middle of a surprisingly cold November night. But whatever. You don't care. You'll be fine.

   Keep telling yourself that as you freeze to death, idiot.

   But you'll be fine, for one reason! Two, actually. Two people - monsters really - who just so happen to have the same names as some fonts you know of? You stay with them instead, just to get back on your feet, and a single question rises to your mind.

   What the hell is keeping you here?
