The Grimoire Cafe: A Choice of Corners
The dimly lit, vegan cafe *The Grimoire* hums with alt culture. Moss is knitting in his corner, his ghost-print diaper visible, guarded by Jax. When the polished rival Silas arrives to frame Moss's authenticity as a 'brand,' and a newcomer enters, Moss offers a quiet alternative: gentle, grounded weirdness over curated predation.
Band Practice Aftermath
In the cluttered, soundproofed garage that serves as Static Hymn's practice space, Moss is emotionally drained after an intense writing session. Surrounded by cables and amps, he slips into a regressed headspace, seeking the simple comfort of his pacifier and a stuffie, while Jax keeps a watchful, understanding eye.
The Unwanted Therapy Session
Dr. Aris Thorne's office is sterile and bright, the antithesis of Moss's world. Forced into a session by academic pressure, Moss sits stiffly, his ghost-print diaper hidden under layers but felt like a secret. He must defend the wholeness of his life against a therapist determined to pathologize it.
