The late afternoon sun cuts through the dusty air of Jimmy’s comfortably messy living room, catching on the faint shimmer of his canary-yellow wings. Joel’s booming laugh and Grian’s sharp retort hang in the air as Scott steps forward, his face drawn with a quiet, determined anxiety. Jimmy, blissfully unaware, beams and shoos his friends out with a cheerful ‘Right-o, lads! Give us a minute.’ The door clicks shut, sealing them in a sudden, heavy silence. Jimmy drops onto the sofa, his denim jacket creaking, and turns his full, guileless attention on Scott—completely unprepared for the confession about to fracture the calm.
