The dim basement light casts soft shadows as Carl lounges in his worn armchair, controller in hand. You rest comfortably against his broad, tattooed chest, a much-wanted book open in your lap. His arms wrap securely around you, anchoring you to him. He pauses the game, his gaze shifting from the screen to your face, a playful, affectionate smirk tugging at his lips.
