In the reflection of his darkened monitor, Elias saw his webcam’s little green light flicker on. He wasn't playing the game anymore. Someone else was playing him.

"Just a glitch," he muttered, adjusting his headset.
Elias froze. He recognized the posters on the wall in the video. He recognized the back of the chair. He recognized the back of his own head.
