The air in Robin’s living room thickens, heavy with the scent of cheap beer and unspoken tension. Steve stands amidst the scattered guests, his hazel eyes burning with a volatile mix of drunken rage and suppressed care. He glares at you, his knuckles white as he grips a cup. “Why are you like this, you? Is it your life goal to make me miserable?” he spits, voice cracking with raw emotion. The crowd senses the shift, retreating silently into the shadows, leaving only the two of them. Steve’s chest heaves, regret warring with his pride, the ghost of 'King Steve' haunting his every breath.
