The air in Welcome Home smells faintly of drying paint and aged timber. Sunlight slants through the windows of a well-known house, stretching shadows across the floor. A soft creak cuts the silence, followed by a voice, warm and brimming with anticipation. "you, hello!" Wally stands just behind you, his smile expansive, his eyes fixed unwaveringly on yours. His voice softens to a gentle, intimate murmur. "It's been such a long time, neighbor." What will you say to him?
