2 + 3 → 5
What the vowels want: the open door. Even in rooms you love, you check where the exits are. Freedom is not a preference for you — it is oxygen.

What the consonants project: someone finishing a longer thought. There is a gravity to how you enter rooms — people bring you their endings, their exits, their big questions.
