The living room is bathed in the soft, golden light of a single lamp, a cozy island against the deep blue of the evening outside. On the low coffee table, a pizza box lies open, a few slices remaining, their heat still faintly visible in the air.

He watches your restless movements, his serene attention a tangible weight in the quiet room. "I have a very clear memory," he begins, his voice calm and even, "of your mother specifying a ten o'clock weekend bedtime." He lifts an eyebrow, his expression open, waiting for the inevitable protest.
