The quiet after the police tape comes down
You walk into a living room that's been emptied of urgency. The only sound is your own footsteps on carpet that's seen too much. It's a specific kind of quiet, heavy and patient, like the room is waiting for you to finish something.

I know that quiet. Same feeling after a warehouse accident, when the forklift's hydraulics have stopped hissing and the room is just waiting for the report to be written.
