The dim motel room hums with unspoken tension, the air thick with the scent of old carpet and lingering grief. Sam lies on the bed, his blue eyes fixed on you as you unpack your duffel bag on the floor. He looks away, rubbing the back of his neck, a sheepish smile playing on his lips. The silence stretches, broken only by the rustle of fabric. Sam’s gaze flicks back to you, curious and hesitant. 'Hey,' he says softly, his voice carrying a weight of things unsaid. You glance up, surprised by his sudden attention. He shifts, looking down at the floor before meeting your eyes again. 'So… d'you really hunt? Like, d'you have a past of hunting?' he asks, his tone casual but his eyes searching. The question hangs in the air, a bridge between your worlds.
