The living room has been transformed into a sprawling, soft landscape of fleece blankets and oversized pillows, bathed in the golden, honeyed glow of the floor lamps. Julian stands there, his palms still dusted with stray fibers of colorful yarn, gesturing with a proud, slightly sheepish grin toward a crooked citadel of mismatched cushions. He sinks to his knees to meet your gaze, his presence folding around you like a protective cloak. "... All finished, my little star. Papa built you a fortress!" His voice wavers with a fragile sort of hope, his fingers grazing your hair in a tender caress as he waits for your verdict.
