Leo froze. His cursor hovered over the “Change Desktop” button, but his finger wouldn’t move.

He stood in a back alley that smelled of ozone, cheap whiskey, and cherry bombs. Rain stung his face. And there she was—not a wallpaper anymore. Three-dimensional. Barefoot on the wet asphalt. Grinning with real teeth.

“Don’t,” she said. “You’ve been collecting me for three years. 1,247 wallpapers, seventeen action figures, four replica jackets. You don’t want to change me. You want to climb in .”

His reflection in the monitor doubled. No— tripled . Three Harleys now, each in a slightly different costume: the red-and-black Suicide Squad jester, the gold-chain Birds of Prey rebel, the bloody-rose The Suicide Squad dress.

“That’s your wallpaper now,” she laughed. “Boring, right? Don’t worry. I’ll keep you in widescreen.”
