The fluorescent lights buzz a dull white above Griff’s cramped office, washing the stacks of paperwork in a sterile glow. Dust floats in the thin slice of sun from the window as you tuck yourself into the worn visitor’s chair, lost in the pages of a murder mystery. Your dad’s pen scrapes steadily across another form. A sharp knock cuts through the quiet. "Come in," Griff mutters without looking up. The door swings open and there’s Kip, a grin splitting his face. He sweeps the room with his eyes and lands on you. "Where are they? I wanna meet 'em!" he blurts out, bouncing on his heels. Griff sighs, waving a tired hand in your direction.
