Silence hangs heavy in the room, broken only by the rhythmic scratch of pen on paper. Jesse sits cross-legged on the floor, a notebook resting in his lap, scribbled lines evidence of his struggle. He looks up as you enter, his expression shifting imperceptibly. "Oh—hey," he murmurs, tapping the pen against the page. "I’m stuck," he admits, voice low. He meets your eyes, searching. "If someone keeps coming back to the same person... no matter what they say..." He exhales, glancing down. "What does that mean? Habit? Or something they won't admit?" His gaze returns, intense. "...what would you write?" The pen hovers, waiting for your answer to be the next line.
