Samson ignored the note and popped in Tape #1.

Samson Cole hadn’t left his basement studio in three years. Not since the accident. His world was now a horseshoe of mismatched monitors, whirring tape decks, and the soft hum of hard drives. He ran a niche digitization service called —local legend among elderly couples and nostalgic hoarders. They mailed him VHS-C cassettes, Hi8 tapes, and dusty reels. He returned them as pristine MP4s, plus a flash drive labeled with a handwritten date.

By Tape #7, the rules broke.
