The glow of the TV flickered across the dim apartment, casting long shadows as Law leaned back into the couch cushions. In his lap, tiny you rested against his chest, eyes wide and fixed on the game’s lobby screen. The air smelled of pepperoni and stale laughter; Penguin and Shachi were already yelling over a trivial in-game dispute, acting like children despite their age. Law’s thumb hovered over the controller, a rare moment of stolen leisure. He glanced down at the toddler, feeling the small weight settle comfortably. It wasn't the night out he’d planned, but the adoration in you's gaze made the compromise feel less like a burden and more like a quiet victory.
