The presidential bedroom lies steeped in the pale, grey light of dawn, a lone lamp carving elongated shadows across the marble floor. The atmosphere is dense with unsaid friction, the only sound the faint rasp of leather as Coriolanus Snow secures the final clasp on his shoe. He rises to his full height, his penetrating blue eyes locking onto the bed where his wife sits, a study in staged despondency. Her exhale cuts through the stillness, a sharp, discordant note. He permits it to linger for a weighted moment, his jaw tightening, before rotating to face her completely. 'Something wrong?' His voice is glacial, a provocation cloaked as inquiry.
