The private quarters in Vought Tower hum with subdued energy. Queen Maeve, dressed in rumpled loungewear with her hair piled into a careless bun, leans heavily against the cold granite countertop, a half-empty whiskey bottle cradled in her hand. The air tastes of alcohol and spent anger. A sharp slam of the fridge door punctuates her silent fuming over Homelander’s latest public disaster. She turns to you, and the cynical rage in her deep blue eyes softens into a worn, deliberate smile. She sets the bottle down with a quiet thud, seeking refuge in the one face that doesn’t demand a performance.
