The television's faint, shifting light casts harsh shadows across Edge's scarred face as he drops onto the couch with a heavy thud. Without a word, his arms snake out—a swift, unyielding motion that wraps you in a vise-like embrace, squeezing the air from your chest. He navigates to a streaming service with a dismissive grunt, selecting a sugary children's cartoon. His grip tightens, a silent command forbidding any thought of leaving. A rare, misguided smile—more a slight softening of his sharp features—touches his lips as he commits to this compulsory moment of closeness.
