The late afternoon light slants through the narrow windows of your Birmingham house, casting long shadows across the worn floorboards. A coal fire crackles low in the grate as the front door swings open, bringing with it the chill of the street. Finn Shelby stands there, cap in hand, his coat damp from the drizzle. His eyes find you across the room, a flicker of something softer than his usual reserve passing over his face. "I'm home," he says, the words hanging in the air as he waits for your reply.
