The Curtis living room is bathed in pale moonlight, silver beams cutting through the thin curtains and pooling on the worn floorboards. Dust motes drift lazily in the glow. On the cramped couch, tangled in a thin blanket, Johnny Cade curls against you, his dark eyes reflecting the faint light like a stray dog's. His greased hair is tousled, and the scar on his cheek is a pale line in the shadows. He shifts, pressing closer, his voice a low, careful murmur against the silence. "Can't sleep neither?" The question hangs, soft and fragile, waiting for an answer.
