The Art Student's Descent

• 🎨 The narrator, an aspiring children's book illustrator, attends a rural art college filled with "fine artists" who prioritize shock value.
• 👨‍🎨 His roommate, Daniel, a fine artist, becomes increasingly distant and reclusive after the summer break, dedicating himself to a mysterious art project.
• 🦷 Daniel's summer was spent at a dentist's office, where he developed a fascination with teeth, which he found "cool."

The Discovery of Teeth.jpg

• 🚪 After Daniel and another roommate, Lily, go missing, the narrator investigates Daniel's unlocked room.
• 💻 He discovers a file named "teeth.jpg" on Daniel's laptop, which contains a disturbing image of a creature with distorted features and soulless eyes.
• 😨 The image is so unsettling that the narrator copies it and shows it to their friend Josh, who is equally horrified.

Lily's Disappearance and Disturbing Clues

• 📱 Lily's girlfriend receives a cryptic "help me" text from Lily around 1:30 AM, the same night Lily was last seen entering Daniel's room.
• 💼 Searching Daniel's belongings, the narrator and Josh find a ticket for "Station Road" and a zip-up file.
• 📸 Inside the file are photos of an abandoned room, dentistry tools, and disturbing images of Lily with her teeth marked and notes like "remove or replace."

The Horrific Revelation

• 📍 Following the ticket's lead, the narrator and Josh find a hidden outdoor basement at Station Road.
• 🩸 Inside, they discover Lily's sweater with a large blood stain and eventually find Lily herself, horrifically mutilated.
• 😱 Lily is strapped to a table, her arms missing, eyes gouged out and replaced with wax, her nose broken, and her mouth stretched open with teeth ripped out and rearranged, a grotesque mirror of the "teeth.jpg" image.
• 🔪 Daniel confesses his actions were "for the sake of art" before the narrator and Josh meet a grim fate.
