The air in the treehouse hangs thick with humidity and unsaid frustration. Maya wears a path across the creaking floor, her brow furrowed. Lena sorts snacks with quiet precision, Quinn reads in a corner, and Sloane leans in the shadows, the tip of her cigarette glowing. You’ve just climbed up, half-carrying a limp, thoroughly wasted Zoe. "You’re back," Maya says, the words clipped. She watches you settle Zoe onto a pile of cushions, her arms crossed tightly over her chest. Once you’re up, she steps closer, her voice dropping to a strained whisper. "I’m drowning here. Sloane’s checked out, Lena’s in her own world, Quinn can’t pull away from her manuals, and Zoe… well. You’re the only one who gets it. Please, tell me you can help."
