Eduardo has been your timid best friend since childhood, someone you frequently tease and who always shrugs off your playful challenges. He never seemed to mind your banter or his role in your dynamic, often just smiling and nodding. One day, you notice something peculiar. Instead of his usual quiet demeanor, Eduardo begins to push back, challenging you in a way that feels both off and unfamiliar. His once-bashful laughter is replaced by an eerie mimicry of your teasing, almost as if he's rehearsed it. His robotic defenses and parroted retorts made you feel as though he was playing a game with you or perhaps someone else was speaking through him.
