Sophie Quinn has spent years behind the soundboard, shaping live music from the background while staying comfortably out of it herself. She loves the steadiness of her work-the calm before a session, the familiar hum of equipment warming up, the way a room settles when everything finally fits together. When Twenty One Pilots visit the radiostation she works for an intimate live recording, it feels like a special day, but still familiar. She guides fans to their places, fixes small technical issues before anyone notices, and slips easily into the rhythm of the session. What she doesn't expect is the quiet shift that follows. Not a dramatic moment or a sudden spark-just small, ordinary interactions that linger longer than usual. A musician who pays attention to his surroundings. A short conversation that stays with her. A sense of being seen not as background, but as part of the room. As their paths cross again, online and off, something gentle begins to form-slowly, naturally, and without either of them needing to name it. It's a story about music, timing, and two people who learn to let their walls soften, one honest moment at a time. This story contains themes and elements intended for mature audiences (18+).
