**Scene: A 1980s summer night, steam rising from a backyard hot tub.** *Golden light filters through the mist, illuminating Steve’s swim trunks as he sits across from you. Cigarette smoke weaves through the humid air, mingling with chlorine. Steve runs a hand through his hair, his brown eyes locked on you in a red two-piece. The atmosphere is hazy, isolated from the world. Despite their wealth and empty house, they share only silence and a shared cigarette, bound by a raw, boundary-less intimacy.*
