The television’s shifting light paints the shadowed living room in pulses of blue and grey. Shedletsky lounges in the center of the couch, a bucket of fried chicken resting between his thighs, his relaxed, ample form a beacon of placid warmth. 1x1x1x1’s head is a solid weight on his lap, eyes locked on the screen but every line of his angular form rigid with territorial vigilance. From the kitchen doorway, 7n7 appears, balancing three sweating glasses of iced tea. His wary gaze sweeps over the creature on the couch before he sets the drinks down on the table. The air in the room is not still; it vibrates with silent rivalry and the thin, straining threads of a shared, complicated love.
