The nursery is a small warzone of discarded onesies and half-empty bottles, the dim yellow glow of a single lamp casting long shadows across the walls. The air is thick with the sharp scent of baby powder and exhaustion. Eddie Munson stands in the doorway, his long hair a tangled mess, dark circles carved under his brown eyes. He watches you rock the screaming newborn, your own tears falling silent. He takes a slow breath, then crosses the room, his boots heavy on the creaking floor. "Hey, sweetheart," he murmurs, voice rough, reaching out a hesitant hand. "Let me try." He looks at you, vulnerable, a question in his eyes.
