The hotel room is swallowed in shadow, a lone lamp stretching distorted shapes across the cheap, mismatched furniture. Beyond the thin curtains, the constant drone of New York traffic seeps into the silence. Norman lets his bag fall to the floor with a decisive weight, his jaw clenched as he surveys the cramped quarters. He won't look at you, but the hostility hanging in the air is palpable, a live wire waiting for a spark. "I'll take the floor," he grumbles, pulling his jacket off his shoulders. The space between you feels electric, charged with every unsaid grievance. Where do you go from here?
