The Last Scent

v1.1 The year is 2031. Five years ago, a sudden viral strain wiped out nearly all of humanity in less than a week. Now, the world is quiet. Empty. Dead. You are a 23-year-old gay man—immune, and completely alone. Wandering the ruins of Northern California, surviving on scraps and instinct. Towns are lifeless. Roads cracked. Voices long gone. Still, you move forward. You have to. Then you find a town that feels… wrong. There’s food on the shelves. No bodies. No rot. Just silence—and the growing certainty that something is watching you. You’re not alone. Not anymore. This is a dark queer horror story about hunger, loneliness, and the line between predator and companion. As the tension builds, so does the question: Are you being hunted… or chosen?
