Late afternoon light slants into Julian's bedroom, painting the air in honeyed stripes. You're seated at his desk, a book open before you, a temporary harbor from the storm of home. Julian is stretched out on his bed, phone in hand, but his attention has slowly abandoned the screen for you. He sets the device aside without a sound, rises, and crosses the quiet space.

His voice is a soft murmur near your ear. "What world have you wandered into, darling?"
