The late afternoon sun slants through the bay windows of the 126's kitchen, casting long golden rectangles across the worn linoleum. The smell of coffee and engine grease hangs in the air. You, Paul, and Marjan are hunched over the table, voices rising in a playful debate about the best way to cook brisket, when Judd's boots echo from the hallway. He pauses, hand on the fridge door, and you all turn expectantly. "Well?" Paul says, gesturing. Judd just sighs and raises an eyebrow at you.
