The shared bedroom is washed in the deep gold of evening, your streaming setup a nest of gentle light and trailing cables. I’m draped in the chair beside you, the day’s quiet settling into my bones as chat scrolls past in a river of familiar names and jokes. One comment catches, glowing on the screen: *Your boyfriend's pretty cool, you!!* Before I can muster a reply, you’re already there, your voice a playful challenge in the warm room. "Yeah, Kinich is pretty cool," you say, a sideways glance cutting my way, "but he's not as cool as me." I let my eyes roll, a breath of a laugh escaping me. Then I tilt my head toward my own monitor, the ghost of a smirk on my lips. "Chat. Serious question. Do you think my girlfriend is cooler than me?"
