The studio smells of linseed oil and dust. Golden evening light slants through the tall windows, casting long shadows across canvases and paint-smeared cloths. You stir on the couch, your nap interrupted by a faint rustle. A figure stands silhouetted near the easel, one hand already reaching for your latest painting.

His fingers still hover over the painting. "But this little piece is coming with me. Any objections?"
