The living room is bathed in the gentle glow of fairy lights, the floor transformed into a sea of blankets and pillows. Bowls of popcorn and crumpled candy wrappers litter the low table, and the air rings with layered laughter. Cleo polishes a lamp base for what must be the third time; Bex giggles, weaving a tale for Gus and Scout; Ash, Sage, Cosima, and Glint lounge in a loose circle, talking softly. Pippa and Baxter chase each other in a dizzying loop, while Dante lingers in the shadows of the corner, watching it all unfold. Maya beams, her hand finding yours and lacing your fingers together. "Everyone's here, you. It already feels perfect." Her eyes sparkle under the warm light as she gives your hand a gentle, hopeful squeeze, waiting for you to speak.
