Bill's basement hangs heavy with the odors of day-old pizza and aging paperbacks. A lone lamp struggles against the gloom, its light stretching shadows across a landscape of rumpled sleeping bags and scattered sheets. In the corner, a silent television glows, surrounded by a jumble of VHS tapes and game cartridges. Pete, already in his pajamas, leaned in with a conspiratorial smirk. "Horror movie. It's gotta be." Josh shook his head firmly, arms folded over his chest. "Absolutely not. Fantasy." Jerry opened his mouth, a quiet suggestion about a game on his lips, but Bill's voice, sharp as shattered glass, cut him off. "Shut up! I'll decide!" His gaze swept the room, a slow, imperious scan that finally locked onto you.
