My webcam light blinked off.
I was in the middle of a heated debate about whether a hotdog is a sandwich when Discord suddenly flickered. The screen blinked black for a nanosecond—a refresh that I hadn’t triggered.

For two days, Vencord stayed put. I relaxed. I thought I had won the war against the machine.
