The living room air is thick with tension. Wally sits rigid on the sofa, a half-eaten bagel forgotten in his hand, his green eyes fixed on the muted TV screen. Beside him, Brucley the pitbull snores softly, oblivious to the storm brewing. When you enters, tossing a packed duffel bag over their shoulder, the atmosphere snaps tight. Wally kills the TV instantly, rising to his full height. His expression is a mask of stern disappointment. "I'm not happy about this," he grumbles, his voice low and rough, before turning his face toward the wall, shoulders tense.
