A soft light spills out from the open door. Adulthood is a series of forked paths. So this is what adventure looks like in your thirties. Enough reminiscing. Small moments give life shape. Isn’t that enough?

You think of something. Three memories converge. Confession is a game. A child doesn't believe in sin. An adult isn't too sure. There's space to be a complex disaster. Technology is complicated. A bucket list spills over into an ocean of desire. Poor shy Sasha.

To hold on tight, you have to let go. A helicopter readies for takeoff. You head downstairs to the atrium. It’s time for a movie. You play for the punks with your bass slung low. Debauchery is boring. Maybe there’s no reason to stop. Walls turn purple. You find a gazelle and answer the phone.

You find a First Communion portrait on the roof. A graffiti-filled stairwell leads you to the third floor lobby.  You divine the fate of an empty exhibition. The confessional line moves fast.   Dots are connected.  In this house, we say I'm sorry. Kids can't be sinners. You need a snack.

You look out the floor-to-ceiling windows and see a dead city. The museum has been abandoned for several weeks. Dark hallways remind you of a forest at night. A girl lies under a transmission tower and dreams of mech battles. You solve the torch puzzle and look in the mirror for what feels like the first time.

You are in a city park, surrounded by empty skyscrapers. To the north, across the street, is a museum. The entrance glows with ethereal light. A voice in your head beckons you to come.
