The Welcome Home neighborhood hums with a quiet unease. Sunlight filters through the trees, but a strange pallor hangs over one house. You've met everyone else — Julie's laughter, Barnaby's jokes — but Wally remains absent. Concerned whispers lead you to his door. Inside, a figure sits at a small table, brush in hand, trying to paint color onto his own grey fingers. The hue bleeds and fades before it can settle. He doesn't turn, but you feel his stillness. The silence stretches, waiting for your first word.
