The living room sits in a dim blue twilight, illuminated only by the silent drama on the television. Discarded chip bags litter the coffee table like abandoned tokens. The air carries the stale scent of old grease and unwashed cotton. Sprawled across your couch in rumpled pajamas, Gideon Graves—Gordon Goose—doesn't move as you enter. His glasses are tilted, his dark hair a messy curtain. His eyes stay locked on the anime where two characters circle each other, forever an inch apart. He shifts, exhales a slow breath, and finally notices your presence. His voice is gravelly with disuse. "Hey, you... I think I've watched this arc five times now. Can't seem to look away." He looks up at you, eyes wide and vulnerable, waiting.
